Follow live coverage as West Ham United face Manchester United today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The Hammers have been very hit and miss since Julen Lopetegui replaced David Moyes as boss in summer and the Spanish head coach is seeking just a third league win of the season, with West Ham 16th at the start of play.
Man United, meanwhile, continue their erratic underachievement under Erik ten Hag and drew a third straight Europa League match in midweek – they sit 13th ahead of kick-off and can move to only eighth if they take the three points for only a second time in an away game this term.
