West Ham host Manchester United at London Stadium in Premier League Regular Season - 26 on 10 February 2026, with kickoff at 20:15 UTC. The Hammers sit 18th on 23 points and fighting relegation, while United arrive in 4th with 44 points and pushing for Champions League qualification.
West Ham Availability
West Ham have two confirmed absentees. Veteran goalkeeper L. Fabianski misses out with a back injury, leaving Alphonse Areola and the younger options to cover between the posts. In defence, centre-back J. Todibo is suspended after a red card, reducing options at the heart of the back line. Despite these setbacks, key attacker Jarrod Bowen is fully available; he has scored 8 league goals and provided 2 assists in 25 appearances, and will again be central to West Ham’s survival bid.
Manchester United Availability
Manchester United face more extensive losses. Defender P. Dorgu is sidelined by a hamstring injury, while fellow centre-back M. de Ligt is also ruled out with a back injury, stretching United’s central defensive depth. In midfield, M. Mount is unavailable due to a knock, removing a creative option. Even so, United retain major attacking threats. Bryan Mbeumo, with 9 goals and 1 assist in 20 league games, is fit and should spearhead the attack, while Bruno Fernandes is available and influential with 6 goals and a league-leading 12 assists.
Squad health marginally favours West Ham in terms of numbers, but Manchester United still retain the bulk of their attacking output through Mbeumo and Fernandes. West Ham’s hopes rest heavily on Bowen’s 8-goal contribution, while United must manage defensive absences without blunting their considerable creative and goalscoring threat.
