Manchester United have not lost three consecutive home league games since 1979 and after 1-0 defeats to Everton and Newcastle United, they would be mortified with similar against West Ham. Sam Allardyce's side beat Tottenham Hotspur to reach the Capital One Cup semi-finals. That win came at White Harte Lane from a losing position and with Old Trafford less of a fortress now, the visitors will fancy their chances of leaving with something.
