Man Utd's Five-Game Streak: Last Win Under Ten Hag

Manchester United fans are eagerly anticipating their next Premier League fixture against West Ham on Tuesday night, as the Red Devils aim to extend their current four-match winning streak to five. Under interim manager Michael Carrick, United have defeated Manchester City, Arsenal, Fulham, and Tottenham since January 17th.

This potential five-game winning run would mark United's first since February 2024 under former manager Erik ten Hag. That streak included victories over Newport County, Wolves, West Ham, Aston Villa, and Luton Town before ending against Fulham. The current run has captured attention beyond football, with fan Frank Ilett gaining viral fame for his promise not to cut his hair until United win five consecutive matches.

United's last five-game winning streak came during a dominant period that showcased their attacking prowess. If they defeat West Ham on Tuesday at 20:15 GMT, they'll match that achievement and potentially end Ilett's 10-month hair-growing journey. The match represents more than just three points for United, who are looking to build momentum under Carrick's temporary leadership.
