Manchester United vs West Ham LIVE!
Premier League strugglers West Ham will journey northwards today, facing Europa League finalists Manchester United at Old Trafford. The Hammers are winless since late February and looking to end their season on a high following a dismal run which has left fans counting down the days until the summer.
United are on a similarly challenging run in the Premier League, last winning a domestic fixture when they beat Leicester 3-0 in March, but have been fully focused on the Europa League for some time. They qualified for the final on Thursday after routing Athletic Club 4-1 at home, with focus now shifting to the final in Bilbao, where they will face Tottenham. Ruben Amorim is expected to name a rotated team as he looks to avoid losing key players to injury ahead of a first European final since 2017.
For West Ham, opportunity knocks. A statement away win, even against a rotated United side, would work wonders for both squad and fan morale amid a hugely disappointing start to Graham Potter’s reign. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog!

Mason Mount, though, is rewarded with a start in an a No10 role after his stunning cameo against Athletic Club, where he bagged a brace in a 28-minute appearance. He chipped the ‘keeper from 40-yards for his second goal of the night.

Rumours swirled around star West Ham midfielder Lucas Paqueta this week. He was seen in tears after being booked against Tottenham, and some wondered if he would play again this seaso-n.
Potter told the media that he was ‘frustrated’ with his situation. He had been accused of deliberately earning yellow cards so as to earn money for friends and family in Brazil, a charge he has denied throughout court the investigation.
He is on the bench for today’s match.

Ruben Amorim has named a stronger squad than one might have expected, opting to keep his players sharp rather than resting them ahead of the Europa League final.
Altay Bayindir comes in for Andre Onana in goal, and Harry Amass slots in at wing-back. Mason Mount and Kobbie Mainoo both impressed against Athletic Club, and their efforts are rewarded with starts.

If there is one player Man United need to silence today, it is Jarrod Bowen.
With 10 goals and seven assists in the Premier League this season, he is comfortably the Hammers’ most consistent performer.
On his day, Mohammed Kudus will also pose a major threat with his pace and tricky dribbling, but he has not been at his best for long stretches this year. He can cause a lot of problems on his day.

United’s last match was a big one - they qualified for the Europa League final with a 4-1 home win over Athletic Club.
The visitors were the better side for much of the game, but the tides turned with about 25 minutes remaining when Amorim introduced Mason Mount. The former Chelsea man scored a late brace to give United the lead on the night and extend their already comfortable lead in the tie, before Casemiro and Hojlund added two more for good measure.
Whether any of Thursday’s goalscorers feature today is up in the air. Team news will come soon, though.

Aaron Cresswell, Lukasz Fabianski, Vladimir Coufal and Danny Ings are all set to leave West Ham as free agents at the end of the season.
The Hammers have the oldest squad in the Premier League and have been preparing for a summer rebuild. The four departing players were among the oldest in the team.
Graham Potter said: “Aaron, Lukasz, Vladimir and Danny have been a pleasure to work with in my time here so far — all brilliant professionals on and off the pitch, with fantastic experience in the Premier League, and clearly loved and admired by their team-mates and everyone here at the club.”
