When and where?
Manchester United v West Ham United
EFL Cup Quarter-Final
Wednesday 30 November 2016, 8pm GMT
Old Trafford
What’s the story?
West Ham United head to Old Trafford for the second time in four days on Wednesday, when they complete their Manchester United double header with an EFL Cup Quarter-Final.
A date at Wembley is coming into view for these two sides, with a result on the night guaranteed following Old Trafford draws in their last three meetings.
Sunday’s match-up produced a 1-1 scoreline, as Zlatan Ibrahimovic headed home to cancel out Diafra Sakho’s early opener.
Darren Randolph made excellent saves to deny Jesse Lingard, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Paul Pogba, while Ashley Fletcher also went close as honours ended even.
In this competition, the Red Devils have defeated Northampton Town and Manchester City to reach this stage of the competition, having joined at the same third round stage as the Hammers.
Slaven Bilic’s men have battled past Accrington Stanley and London rivals Chelsea on their cup run, and are looking to reach the semi finals for the third time in seven seasons.
Manchester United are four time League Cup winners, while the Hammers are aiming to lift the trophy for the first time in their history, having twice finished as runners-up.
Team news
The Hammers will be without Diafra Sakho, who suffered a hamstring injury during Sunday’s game at Old Trafford.
The likes of Ashley Fletcher, Simone Zaza and Andre Ayew will be in line to replace him up-front, while Andy Carroll is also close to a return.
Winston Reid is available again following suspension, and Slaven Bilic may select Adrian in goal after Darren Randolph took over between the posts for the last two Premier League games.
For Manchester United, midfielders Paul Pogba and Marouane Fellaini are both suspended after collecting their fifth bookings of the season on Sunday.
Former Hammer Michael Carrick could return.
Any links between the two?
Each side features an Academy graduate from the other in their squads. For the Red Devils that place is taken by Carrick, while Ashley Fletcher made the move south from Old Trafford in the summer.
The last three games between West Ham and Man Utd at Old Trafford have ended all-square. A 0-0 draw in the league last season was followed by a 1-1 FA Cup draw, with Dimitri Payet scoring the Hammers’ goal.
The trilogy of draws was completed by Sunday’s stalemate.
