THE PREDICTION

Pep Guardiola’s Man City host West Ham looking to continue their imperious run of form, having won their last 19 games in all competitions. They won’t have it all their way here though against David Moyes’ side, who held City to a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture at the London Stadium. The Hammers are enjoying an excellent season and currently sit fourth in the Premier League with ten points accrued from their last four league games. However, a trip to the Etihad Stadium is likely to prove too difficult a challenge for West Ham to gain any points from vs a Man City side full of confidence, defensive steel and attacking verve with all their key players fit and available. Expect the hosts to come out on top here, although both teams to score is worth considering when taking into account that West Ham have found the net in all but one of their last nine Premier League fixtures.
