Manager Information

West Ham – Graham Potter

(Same as before)

  • Possession-based, flexible attacking play, pressing from the front, solid at home.

  • 2025/26 season form (PL up to Feb 2026): 11W – 6D – 7L, 38 GF – 28 GA

Manchester United – Ruben Amorim

  • Background: Amorim is known for tactical discipline, compact defending, and quick counter-attacks. He favours a 3-4-3 or 3-5-2 formation, focusing on structured build-up and a high work-rate from midfield.

  • 2025/26 season form (Premier League up to Feb 2026):

    • Matches: 24

    • Wins: 14

    • Draws: 6

    • Losses: 4

    • Goals Scored: 46

    • Goals Conceded: 24

  • Style: Organised defence, transitions into quick counter-attacks; often relies on wing-backs for width and pace.

  • Head-to-head vs West Ham under Amorim: 0 (first competitive Premier League meeting).

Implications:

  • Amorim’s teams tend to be more compact and defensively resilient than Ten Hag’s. West Ham’s creative midfield may find fewer spaces, and quick counters from United could be more dangerous than before.

Recent Premier League (Last 5 meetings):

  • Still heavily favour Manchester United historically, but with Amorim, expect a more cautious, structured approach rather than open attacking games.


Tactical Battle – Updated

  • West Ham: Still likely to use a structured formation (4-2-3-1 or 3-4-3), trying to exploit United’s wing-backs and fast counters.

  • Man United under Amorim: Will be compact, defensive in numbers, and rely on counter-attacks. Expect fewer high-scoring games, but very organised at the back.

Key Match-ups:

  • Potter’s attacking midfield vs Amorim’s disciplined, low-block midfield.

  • West Ham’s forwards vs United’s wing-backs on counter transitions.

Prediction Insight:

  • Amorim’s pragmatic approach reduces the chance of high-scoring games compared to Ten Hag’s style.

  • Likely outcomes:

    • Man United win: ~50–55%

    • Draw: ~30–35%

    • West Ham win: ~15%
