Premier League - Match facts: Manchester United v West Ham - Yahoo! Eurosport UK

Wayne Rooney has scored seven goals in his last four Premier League appearances against West Ham United.

Sam Allardyce won two of his first three matches as a Premier League coach against Sir Alex Ferguson but has won none of the last 13 (D3 L10).

West Ham have failed to score in five of the last six Premier League games against Man Utd and the two goals they netted in the other match both came from the penalty spot.

There have been four penalties in the last two meetings between the Hammers and the Red Devils including three in the last game in April 2011.

After three straight victories over Man Utd, West Ham have lost their last seven Premier League games against them in a row.

Robin van Persie has scored four goals in his last four Premier League starts against West Ham.

Man Utd have won five and lost none of the eight games where Mike Jones has been the official, while West Ham have lost just one of five games he has refereed (W3 D1 L1).

Javier Hernandez has scored eight goals in his last eight games in all competitions for the Red Devils.

United have scored 10 headed goals this season, at least two more than any other side.

Man Utd have come from behind to win six games this season, just four short of the record of 10 set by Newcastle in 2001-02. Six is already a joint-record for Man Utd in the Premier League.
