5 bold Premier League predictions: Liverpool crush Chelsea

2. West Ham beat Manchester United

On Sunday, Manchester United travel to London to face off against West Ham in what should be an entertaining match. Both of these sides are quite unpredictable so it’s a particularly hard one to call.

West Ham seems to show up more in the bigger matches than they do the smaller ones. The Hammers had big victories against the likes of Chelsea and Tottenham last season and they shouldn’t be scared of Manchester United.

United seemed to have found some kind of stability with back-to-back 1-0 wins in the Premier League and Europa League respectively. However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side still don’t look totally comfortable and confident like a good Manchester United side should do.

West Ham won’t fear United coming into this one but they need to make sure they respect them. Whilst the Red Devils might not be playing their best soccer they still have some world-beaters within their squad that can win matches for them.

Despite United’s relatively poor form in the Premier League, it’s not worked out too badly for them as other sides haven’t been performing too well either. Outside of Liverpool, the likes of United, Spurs, Chelsea and Arsenal are only two points behind Manchester City.

That means that a win for the Red Devils could put them as high as second place this weekend provided results go their way. The same can be said for West Ham who have the same points tally as United.

This game will be deadlocked at half time with both sides finding the back of the net. The Hammers will come out on top though after a winner from Sebastien Haller.
