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 place on 44 points, targeting Champions League qualification.
West Ham Availability
The hosts have two confirmed absentees. Goalkeeper L. Fabianski misses out with a back injury, removing an experienced option behind first-choice Alphonse Areola. In defence, J. Todibo is suspended following a red card, reducing depth at centre-back and likely increasing the responsibility on Max Kilman and Axel Disasi. Attacking talisman Jarrod Bowen, West Ham’s leading league scorer with 8 goals and 2 assists from 25 appearances, is fit and expected to start, a crucial boost for a side that has scored 31 league goals.
Manchester United Availability
Manchester United travel without three players. Defender P. Dorgu is sidelined by a hamstring injury, while centre-back M. de Ligt is also out with a back injury, limiting options in central defence. In midfield, M. Mount is unavailable due to a knock. However, key attacking figures remain ready: B. Mbeumo, United’s top league scorer with 9 goals and 1 assist in 20 matches, is available, as is creative hub Bruno Fernandes, who has contributed 6 goals and a league-leading 12 assists.
Both sides suffer defensive absences, but crucially retain their main attacking threats. West Ham can still rely on Bowen’s 8 league goals, while United keep the bulk of their offensive output through Mbeumo and Fernandes, whose combined 15 goals and 13 assists suggest the visitors arrive with the healthier attacking unit on paper.
