Man U vs. West Ham Picks, Parlay
Leg 1: Manchester United to Win
Leg 2: Both Teams to Score
Leg 3: Bryan Mbeumo to Score
Manchester United’s resurgence under Michael Carrick continued at the weekend as they beat Tottenham 2-0. They face West Ham here, and we are backing the Red Devils to continue their winning run here.
United have looked more dangerous going forward since new manager came in, scoring 10 goals in four matches, despite facing Arsenal and Manchester City, who have the best defensive records in the Premier League.
The Red Devils have also been strong defensively, restricting their opponents to fewer than 0.6 open play xG (expected goals) in all four of their matches under Carrick.
West Ham have also shown improvement of late. However, they have won just three of their 12 home league matches this season, losing eight, which is a concern as they prepare to face a Manchester United side that is full of confidence.
Manchester United is enjoying top form under Michal Carrick, and is a value pick to continue their four-game winning streak.
The Red Devils boast the highest goal average of the season, averaging 3.28 goals per game. Additionally, no team has seen more matches with both teams scoring, as 72% of United's games have ended with both teams on the board.
West Ham have found decent form, winning four of their last five matches across all competitions. In the process, the Hammers have scored a goal in five consecutive Premier League matches.
United have failed to keep a clean sheet in 18 consecutive away matches across all competitions. The last time the Red Devils kept an opposition team to nil was in May 2025, when they beat Athletic Bilbao 3-0 in the Europa League.
Since Michael Carrick took charge, Bryan Mbeumo has been tasked with leading the Manchester United attack. Mbeumo performances have been strong since the start of the season, but with United adopting a more positive approach under Carrick, Bryan looks even more dangerous in front of goal. As a result, we are backing him to score here.
Mbeumo has played in several positions for United, but since the new manager came in, he has had the freedom to pop up in a variety of advanced areas, causing problems for opposition defenders. He has scored in three of the four matches with Carrick at the helm.
Mbeumo has now scored nine league goals this season, and he should have plenty of scoring opportunities against a West Ham side that has conceded the second-most goals in the Premier League, with an average of 1.92 per game.

Man U vs. West Ham Betting Analysis
Manchester United’s winning run under Michael Carrick means they come into this game in 4th, 21 points above West Ham, who are 18th.
Manchester United have put themselves in a good position to qualify for the Champions League, with 5th place almost certainly enough to secure entry into Europe’s elite club competition. However, with 13 games to go, there is a lot of football to be played, so Carrick will be keen for his side to remain positive and take the game to West Ham.
Manchester United enjoyed plenty of possession against Tottenham. Although the red card contributed to United’s dominance, the Red Devils will expect to have lots of the ball here.
West Ham allow the fourth-most passes per defensive action in the league, so expect them to sit deep and allow United to have the ball here. The task for the away side will be breaking down West Ham’s low block. Quick passing play, from the likes of Bruno Fernandes, will be key. United also have the players who can threaten from long-distance efforts.
Manchester United will expect to win given the run they are on, but West Ham are also enjoying a purple patch. Crysencio Summerville and Jarrod Bowen will also provide a potent threat on the break, so we could see a shock result here if Carrick’s team let their standards slip.
