West Ham vs. Manchester United: Team News, Live Stream, TV Info, Ticket News

West Ham United versus Manchester United play a milestone fixture in English football on Tuesday night. It will, as has been widely discussed, be the Hammers’ last ever game at the Boleyn Ground. “Upton Park” as it is often known has been the Irons’ home since 1904, but next season they move to the Olympic Stadium, leaving behind a huge swathe of history.

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic said, per the Telegraph:

The game would be big anyway if it wasn’t the last game at Upton Park because it means a lot to them and to us.

It’s big in terms for them because if they beat us then they would be fourth, and it’s big for us because if we want to secure the European spot we have to beat them.

It would have emotional even if one of those things is involved – now you have two of them, but there is nothing wrong with being emotional.

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal takes his side to the Boleyn Ground knowing that a win will be an enormous boost to his side’s attempt to qualify for the Champions League. Anything less than a win would take matters out of the Red Devils’ hands. He said, per ESPN FC: 

We have a lot of respect to West Ham United. We are not trying to spoil their party, but we do need the three points, that is different.

It will be a big night and an emotional night for them. It [playing the final game at Upton Park] is a negative for us. We have to play against an opponent who says goodbye to the stadium so they don’t want to lose.
