West Ham v Manchester United
Manchester United might still have a chance of Champions League football if they can get a positive result against West Ham at Upton Park on Tuesday.

The Red Devils can leapfrog neighbours Manchester City into fourth place if they bag all three points, as they are currently just two behind their derby rivals, who drew with Arsenal on Sunday. The Hammers, on the other hand, have now lost all hope of stealing fourth place after losing 4-1 to Swansea City.

Despite their heavy defeat to the Swans, which ended a 10-match unbeaten streak, the Hammers currently sit a very respectable seventh in the league standings after a great first season under Slaven Bilic.

This penultimate game of the season will hold special significance for West Ham as it is the final game at their historic Boleyn Ground, also known as Upton Park, which has been their home since 1904. Defeat to United, who knocked them out of the FA Cup earlier in the campaign, would not be the ideal way from fans to say goodbye to their historic home ground.

In team news, Bilic will be unable to call on the services of goalkeeper Adrián (calf muscle strain), meaning that Darren Randolph will most likely continue between the sticks. Carl Jenkinson remains their only other absentee.

For United, midfielder Marouane Fellaini misses out through suspension, while Anthony Martial (hamstring), Bastian Schweinsteiger (medial collateral ligament), and Matteo Darmian (ankle) are all expected to miss out.
