Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera says is determined to help his side secure their spot in the EFL Cup semi-finals when they take on West Ham United on Wednesday.

The Red Devils were left frustrated on Sunday following their 1-1 draw with West Ham United after creating many chances and dominating the match.

Now the midfielder is already looking ahead to Wednesday’s tie against the same opposition and hopes a repeat performance will be enough to clinch United’s place in the last four in the New Year.

The 27-year-old says he is relishing the chance to get revenge on the Hammers when the two side’s meet for the second time in the space of three days.

‘It’s positive that we are playing on Wednesday when we can get revenge,’ Herrera told the Manchester United website.

‘We can turn our luck in the next game in the EFL Cup.

‘It doesn’t matter the competition, it doesn’t matter the game, we just want to win. We want to fight for everything and we want to make our fans proud.’

The Spanish international says he will be hoping his side can dominate the match and convert the chances they create in the final third.

‘West Ham are a good side – it is not easy to stop them creating chances. They have [Manuel] Lanzini, they have [Diafra] Sakho, they have [Dimitri] Payet, they have [Michail] Antonio – they have very good players but they just created two chances in the whole game,’ he added.

‘We were the dominant team so hopefully, on Wednesday, we can create as many chances as we did [on Sunday] and normally we should win.’

The match at Old Trafford kicks off at 22:00.
