Why is West Ham vs Manchester United not on TV today? | OneFootball

West Ham and Manchester United are in need of a positive result as two under-pressure managers meet at the London Stadium.

Julen Lopetegui’s side endured a disastrous outing at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last weekend, conceding four goals and seeing Mohammed Kudus dismissed after a moment of madness from the influential forward.

Erik ten Hag is equally under scrutiny after another lacklustre night in the Europa League, though his side did secure a win at Brentford in their last Premier League fixture.

They start the day three points clear of their opponents in the bottom half of the table.

Here’s everything you need to know.
