West Ham United take on Manchester United at the London Stadium on Saturday night.

Ex claims player with three years on deal has no future under Moyes and will likely be sold

Both teams go into the game off the back of three straight wins.

West Ham can go third with a victory.

The match will see 2,000 West Ham supporters return for the first time in nearly 10 months.

Some Hammers fans want to see Moyes bring in Said Benrahma for his first start against the Red Devils.

Hammers fans calling for first Benrahma start

The Algerian magician has had to make do with three second half substitute appearances so far – one lasting just a few minutes at Anfield.

And he already has two assists to his name, setting up the winning goals against both Sheffield United and Aston Villa.

Some West Ham fans want to see Benrahma integrated into the side.

But that would mean dropping big Moyes favourite Pablo Fornals – or changing the formation to four at the back and dropping Arthur Masuaku to allow both to play.

Moyes to stick to his guns for now at least

And Moyes will not be prepared to do that against Man United’s fearsome attack.

So Benrahma may have to bide his time again and hope for another second half substitute appearance.

Moyes will make just one change to the side for the visit of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men.

Sebastien Haller comes back in from the start after being rather prematurely dropped in favour Michail Antonio last time out.

Haller comes in for Antonio as Hammers make one change

Antonio suffered a new hamstring injury in that game and was withdrawn at half-time.

Haller was steadily improving with more game time. West Ham fans will just have to hope being dropped has not knocked his rather fragile confidence.

Predicted West Ham starting XI to face Man United:

Fabianski, Coufal, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Masuaku, Fornals, Rice, Soucek, Bowen, Haller.

West Ham owners may make Moyes choose between striker or £18m midfielder – insider
