Last season, West Ham (11-10-17) and Man United (11-9-18) finished back-to-back in the Premier League table, at 14 and 15, respectively. Both teams have a long history of stateside matches, with West Ham’s most recent appearance being just last summer in the inaugural Stateside Cup.

West Ham United started their Premier League Summer Series campaign with a 2-1 defeat by Manchester United at the iconic MetLife Stadium. Bruno Fernandes put the Red Devils ahead in the United States, converting from the penalty spot after Alphonse Areola fouled Ayden Heaven and Manchester United led 1-0 going into the half-time break.
