Manchester United will be aiming to keep their ambitions of finishing in the top-four alive, when they take on West Ham United on Saturday evening.
The Red Devils are in sixth, knowing a victory could take them level with Tottenham, depending on their result against Huddersfield earlier in the day.
West Ham are in mid-table, with no threat of relegation, but equally no chance of a European finish.
These sides met earlier in the season, with the Hammers ending surprise 3-1 winners after a sensational first-half at the London Stadium.
TEAM NEWS
Manchester United defenders Luke Shaw and Ashley Young are suspended for the match, with Nemanja Matic a doubt due to a virus.
Ander Herrera, Eric Bailly, Alexis Sanchez and Antonio Valencia are all out through respective injuries.
West Ham forward Michail Antonio returns to the squad following an ankle issue that kept him out of the loss to Chelsea.
Samir Nasri is out of the game with a calf injury he sustained in the warm-up to the midweek loss at Stamford Bridge.
THE MANAGERS
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solksjaer: "We need as many points as possible and I think if we get 15, we'll be top three, because in those games we'll hopefully beat Chelsea.
"But now, it's about West Ham and focusing on a good performance to give us three points.
"We want top three. Top four is also an aim, if we don't get 15 points but we should always aim for 15."
West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini: "We must demand more. We must try to play every game with improvement and evolve.
"We still have a mathematical chance for Europe and we must try for that."
