West Ham Women travel to the Progress With Unity Stadium this Sunday for a 1pm BST kick-off against Manchester United. It is the latest chapter in a lopsided Man United record. This update brings our original head-to-head report up to date ahead of the Women’s Super League fixture.
The two sides have met 13 times in the WSL since United joined the top flight. West Ham have won just once. Sunday gives Rita Guarino’s side another chance to chip away at a record still tilted firmly towards their hosts.
How the head-to-head record stands
The Man United record against West Ham reads one win, four draws and eight defeats from those 13 WSL meetings. Goals tell the same story. West Ham have scored eight times. Manchester United have scored 29.
That gap shows how one-sided this fixture has been since West Ham and Manchester United entered the WSL calendar. For context on other matchups, read a recent H2H piece on West Ham’s record against Fulham.
West Ham’s results against Manchester United
West Ham’s only WSL win over Manchester United came on 1 December 2019. It finished 3-2 at Rush Green. That result remains a rare moment in time for the Hammers against a side that has otherwise dominated this fixture.
Manchester United won 2-1 on 7 December 2025. The most recent meeting then finished goalless at Chigwell Construction Stadium on 18 March 2026. That draw made it three successive drawn WSL home games between the two clubs.
Away from home, the picture is starker still. West Ham have lost each of their six previous WSL trips to face the Red Devils. Sunday’s match is designed to end that run.
What the WSL record means
The numbers show a fixture West Ham have rarely troubled. Eight defeats from 13 meetings stand against just one win. That gap has only partly narrowed through three recent draws at home.
Those draws do suggest some progress. West Ham have stopped losing to United at Chigwell Construction Stadium. That resilience has not yet translated into victories on the road, though.
Sunday is therefore another test. It will show whether Guarino’s side can finally add to their solitary win from 2019.
What happens next
Kick-off at the Progress With Unity Stadium is 1pm BST on Sunday. Supporters can check our TV guide for the latest on how to watch Hammers fixtures this season.
Those wanting a read on current form can revisit player ratings from West Ham’s recent match against London City. A win at Manchester United’s expense would mark only the second league victory in this head-to-head. It would be a welcome step forward for Guarino’s squad.
