Man Utd v West Ham Barclays Premier League Venue: Old Trafford Date: Saturday, 28 August Kick-off: 1715 BST (台灣時間 8/29 00:15) 直播頻道 (((((((((( 衛視體育台、MOD頻道 ESPN HD Live )))))))))) 廣東體育、上海體育、香港有線301(hd201)、澳門有線1台、泰星103 TEAM NEWS Manchester United may rest Paul Scholes and draft Michael Carrick or Ryan Giggs into central midfield. Wayne Rooney returns after missing the match with Fulham and will partner Dimitar Berbatov in attack. West Ham are likely to opt for a five-man midfield, so striker Frederic Piquionne could give way to midfielder Radoslav Kovac. Matthew Upson should return to the side after missing the Carling Cup game against Oxford with a facial injury. Man Utd Van der Sar, Kuszczak O'Shea, Neville, Rafael, Vidic, Brown, Evans, Smalling, Evra, Fabio Valencia, Nani, Cleverley, Gibson, Scholes, Carrick, Fletcher, Park, Giggs Rooney, Owen, Berbatov, Hernandez Injured: Anderson, Ferdinand & Hargreaves (all knee) West Ham Green, Stech, Kurucz, Upson, Tomkins, Ilunga, Ben-Haim, Gabbidon, Spector, Da Costa, Reid, Daprela, Noble, Parker, Kovac, Barrera, Faubert, Boa Morte, Dyer, McCarthy, Sears, Nouble, Diamanti, Stanislas, Piquionne, Cole, McCarthy, Obina. Injured: Collison, Hines & Kurucz (all knee), Hitzlsperger (thigh) MATCH PREVIEW - Letting a lead slip twice, squandering a penalty and conceding an 89th minute equaliser against Fulham last Sunday left Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson raging, especially as his side missed out on the title last season by a solitary point. - But the Red Devils are a team that never dwells on a bad result and, on paper, West Ham seem ideal opposition as Ferguson's side look to play catch up on Chelsea's goal difference that already stands at +12. - With the Hammers porous at the back, it could also be the perfect chance for Wayne Rooney to rediscover his goalscoring form. When United played West Ham back in February, he took his tally to a staggering 27 goals in just 36 matches, but his horror run now stretches to 13 matches and 1081 minutes without a goal. - Hammers boss Avram Grant faced an insurmountable challenge when he replaced Paul Hart at crisis club Portsmouth last season, but on the evidence of West Ham's first three games of the season, he has another serious job on his hands to install faith in a team that he says carry a lot of "psychology problems." - The Hammers are already off to their worst-ever start to a Premier League season and captain Scott Parker admitted he is "dreading" the thought of Saturday's trip to Old Trafford. If that wasn't bad enough, they then face Chelsea, Stoke away and Tottenham. MATCH FACTS Head-to-head ‧ Man Utd have won their last five matches against West Ham and have scored 14 goals in those games to the Hammers' one. ‧ The Red Devils dropped just three points from winning positions last season, which was the fewest in the top flight.

Man Utd ‧ Wayne Rooney has failed to score for club and country in 13 matches; his last goal came against Bayern Munich on 30 March. He has provided just one assist in Man Utd's last nine league matches. ‧ The Red Devils have won 11 of their last 12 league matches at Old Trafford, and have averaged 3.25 goals per game in that period. ‧ Paul Scholes made 200 passes in United's opening two games of the season, the highest in the league. West Ham ‧ The Hammers are without an away win in the league since the first day of last season when they beat Wolves 2-0, a run of 19 matches. ‧ West Ham's last seven league victories all came at Upton Park. ‧ If he plays, Scott Parker will be making his 250th career league start.

M.E.N Prediction: United 2-0 West Ham - the Hammers are off to a slow start and can expect few favours at OT Key opponent: Scott Parker - Premier League stalwart always up for midfield battle Skysports.com prediction: United 4-1 West Ham One to Watch: Dimitar Berbatov Lawro's predictions United 3-0 West Ham United may have slipped up at Fulham on Sunday, Nani missing a penalty that would have put them 3-1 up and sealed the points, but don't expect them to do the same in a tea-time kick-off at Old Trafford. They've already lost a bit of ground on Chelsea and will see this match as chance to get back to winning ways. Hammers boss Avram Grant admitted after Tuesday's Carling Cup win over Oxford that his team were very low on confidence and it's clear for all to see. They're still trying to buy players and don't look like a settled squad. Grant needs the likes of Rob Green, Matthew Upson, Scott Parker and Carlton Cole to step up - they have to start performing or else it's going to be a long, hard season. http://tinyurl.com/22vvvu7 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/8946431.stm http://www.skysports.com/football/match_preview/0,19764,11065_3285991,00.html http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/8946573.stm -- 衛視體育台改播曼聯這場了... -- ★ ╔╦═╮╔╮ ╭╔╮ ╭╔╦═╮ ╔╮╔╮╭╦═╮╔╮═╮ ☆ ☆ ╠╬╦╯╠╣ ║╠╣ ║╠╣ ║ ╠╣╠╣╠╬═╣╠╣ ║ ★ ★ ╰╝╰╯╰╝═╯╰╝═╯╚╯═╯ ╰╰╯╯╰╝ ╰╰╝ ╰ ☆ ☆ SCORING MACHINE︰ Ruud van Nistelrooy ★ ╔╮═╮╭╦╦╮╭╦═╮╭╦╦╮╔╦═╮╔╮ ╔╦═╮╭╦═╭═╦╮╮ ╔╮ ╠╣ ║ ╠╣ ╚╩╦╮ ╠╣ ╠╬╣ ╠╣ ╠╬╦╯╠╣ ║ ╠╣╚═╬╣ ╰╝ ╰╰╩╩╯╰═╩╝ ╚╝ ╚╩═╯╰╩═╯╰╝╰╯╰╩═╯═╩╯╰═╩╝ --
