Manchester United continues to find ways to assert itself as the best team in England.
Despite falling behind 1-0 to the Queens Park Rangers early in their last match, the team found a way to score three goals in seven minutes to take over the match and win 3-1. They currently have a one point lead on Manchester City but need to continue their forward momentum lest they want to fall behind again to their cross-town rivals.
Javier Hernandez continues to play top tier soccer. Robin Van Persie has been more quiet of late, but the fact that "Chicharrito" is finally coming into his own makes for a dynamic trio with Wayne Rooney up top.
West Ham United sits in the middle of the pack with 19 points, but a win puts them in range of the top five. They are coming off a 3-1 loss to Tottenham Hotspur. Unfortunately, they will be on the road where they have a record of two wins, one draw, and three losses with five goals for and nine against. Manchester United has five wins and two losses. Kevin Nolan is their primary offensive threat with five goals and two assists.
Predictions: Manchester United should have no trouble at the Old Trafford. 3-1 win.
Start Time: Wednesday, November 28, 3 p.m. EST
