Stoke City v West Ham Utd: live

West Ham United travel to the Brittania Stadium this afternoon looking to gain a first win on the road since last November.

Since that win against Newcastle at St James' Park some nine away games previously, United have just a solitary point to show for their efforts - that coming at West Brom back in December.

Fortunately they face a Stoke team this afternoon equally low on confidence having won just one of their last five home league games.

For those unable to attend the match in person, live updates from the Brittania will be provided throughout the afternoon on our forum match thread, which may be found here: www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=146408.

Meanwhile any live video streams will be listed in our 2012/13 season streaming thread at www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=141602. As always, you use these at your own peril.
