Manchester United have a golden chance to push for a Premier League top-four finish when they host West Ham on Wednesday evening.
United suffered a disappointing result at Wembley as they fell 3-1 to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final - but another result across London could end up being more important to them.
Tottenham thrashed Leicester City 3-0 to dent the Foxes' hopes of Champions League qualification, and United can go three points ahead of Brendan Rodgers' side should they beat the Hammers at Old Trafford.
United still have to travel to Leicester on the final day of the season, and given that goal difference could end up being key, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will want a big performance - and a big win - over West Ham.
David Moyes' Hammers are almost guaranteed to be playing Premier League football next term as they sit three points above the relegation zone with two games to play, but will want to hold on to their superior goal difference advantage just in case.
Date, time and venue
Manchester United vs West Ham is scheduled for a 6pm BST kick-off on Wednesday, July 22.
The match will be played behind closed doors at Old Trafford with no fans due to be present due to government guidelines regarding coronavirus.

Team news

Eric Bailly will almost certainly miss out after being taken to hospital with suspected concussion after a collision against Chelsea.
As for West Ham, Robert Snodgrass is a doubt, while Ryan Fredericks is still sidelined.
Prediction: Man United 3-1 West Ham
The Red Devils looked tired against Chelsea, but Solskjaer will surely revert to his core players and trusted 4-2-3-1 formation.
However, David de Gea may finally be dropped after an error-strewn FA Cup semi-final display, with Sergio Romero pushing for a start.
