West Ham take on Manchester United in the Premier League this weekend, but supporters in the UK won’t be able to watch it.

The Hammers are looking to build on their first home win of the season and also bounce back from their 4-1 thrashing at the hands of Tottenham.

Meanwhile, Man United managed to come from 1-0 down to beat Brentford 2-1 last weekend.

They followed this up with a 1-1 draw in Turkey against Fenerbahce, so they head to east London with a bit of momentum.

However, the only British-based supporters of either club who will be able to watch the match will be those at the London Stadium.

Is West Ham vs Man United on TV?

No, this match hasn’t been selected for TV broadcast.

This fixture is set to take place on Sunday, October 27, with kick-off scheduled for 2pm.

It was initially set to take place on Saturday, October 26 at 3pm, but due to United’s involvement in Europe, the fixture had to be changed.

United are playing in the Europa League this season, which means Thursday night games and Premier League matches have to be moved to Sundays or Mondays to allow sufficient recovery time.

This match wasn’t initially selected for TV coverage when the broadcast companies made their choices.

Instead, Chelsea’s home tie against Newcastle and the huge match between Arsenal and Liverpool were picked by Sky Sports.

This means United and West Ham fans won’t be able to watch their teams in action this weekend.

Instead, supporters will be able to catch the highlights on Match of the Day 2 at 10:30pm on Sunday evening.

Sky Sports will also release a short selection of highlights just after the final whistle.

talkSPORT will have updates from east London throughout the afternoon, and talkSPORT.com will also have the action via our dedicated Premier League blog.
