Jeff Stelling makes very tight West Ham United prediction v Manchester United
West Ham travel to Old Trafford on Sunday to face Manchester United, and Jeff Stelling has made a prediction on the match result.
Following wins over Silkeborg and Bournemouth, West Ham will look to add a third consecutive victory at Old Trafford this weekend.
The Hammers don’t have the best record at the Theatre of Dreams with their last win in the league there coming back in 2007, but it hasn’t stopped Sky Sports host Stelling from backing David Moyes to pick up a point from his former side.
During his Super Six predictions, Stelling has predicted a 1-1 draw for Sunday’s blockbuster showdown.
Within his prediction, Stelling said he was backing West Ham to “hold Manchester United to a point at Old Trafford.”
Got to be positive
Since starting the season on the back foot, West Ham have finally found some form in recent weeks. They still boast a 100 per cent record in Europe and are quickly ascending the Premier League standings.
With just one loss in their last six – and that coming undeservedly at Anfield – Hammers fans should head to Old Trafford full of positivity about their chances of bringing back all three points.
Most fans would probably settle for a point right now considering Manchester United are also in great form of late, but there’s nothing wrong with a little ambition.
With no league win at Old Trafford in the last 15 years, West Ham should be more motivated than ever to make a statement victory against Erik ten Hag’s side.
On top of that, Moyes will want to return to Manchester with a bang following his dismal spell with the Red Devils in the 2013/14 season.
