Manchester United vs West Ham live stream and match preview

Looking for a Manchester United vs West Ham live stream? We've got you covered with our handy guide.

The Premier League weekend concludes as Manchester United welcome West Ham to Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

Erik ten Hag's hosts are unbeaten in seven games since losing 6-3 to Manchester City at the beginning of the month, and they come into this clash chasing a third straight home win in all competitions – following a 2-0 Premier League victory over Tottenham, and a 3-0 Europa League success against FC Sheriff last time out. United have won their last four league meetings with West Ham and triumphed 1-0 in this fixture last season.

The Hammers, meanwhile, have recovered well from a bumpy start to the season and head to Old Trafford having won six and drawn one of their last eight matches in all competitions (losing only to Liverpool in that time). David Moyes' team have only recorded one away league victory in 2022/23, though (1-0 at Aston Villa back in August); what an occasion this would be for the former United boss to make it two.

Team news

Having been dropped from the squad for last weekend's 1-1 draw at Chelsea after refusing to come on against Tottenham, Cristiano Ronaldo returned to action in midweek – starting and scoring United's third goal – and the Portuguese is back in the starting line-up. Harry Maguire and Donny van de Beek also returned from injury on Thursday night. The England defender starts against West Ham, while the Netherlands midfielder is on the bench. Anthony Martial remains sidelined.

For West Ham, Jarrod Bowen returns from a minor ankle injury and makes his 100th Premier League appearance. Manager David Moyes makes one change from Monday's win over Bournemouth as Craig Dawson returns to the starting XI, replacing Ben Johnson.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, and FourFourTwo currently recommends:
