Man City v West Ham Preview

Man City’s Form

Man City have won their last 6 games in all competitions and their last 8 in the league, which means that with two games remaining in their season, two victories would secure another Premier League and FA Cup double. First up is West Ham on Sunday where they know a 4th successive league title will be confirmed with a win and then they can worry about facing their Manchester rivals the following Saturday at Wembley in the FA Cup final.

City got the crucial win they desired on Tuesday Night, but it wasn’t without its drama! With City a goal ahead following a 51st-minute goal from Haaland, Son broke through on goal in the 85th minute where had it not been for a brilliant Ortega save it would’ve been 1-1 and the title could be in Arsenal’s hands. However, City finally secured the all-important 3 points when Haaland completed a brace with a 91st-minute penalty.

City have been the top side in the country all season, but anything other than a win and they could sacrifice their title to Arsenal.

West Ham’s Form

West Ham are an interesting side to gauge, despite David Moyes guiding them to their first-ever European success with a Europa Conference League success last season a stuttering league performance where they finished 14th left constant question marks over his role at the club. That continued this season despite having secured 9th in the league and reaching an EFL Cup and Europa League Quarter-Final, it was recently announced that Moyes would depart at the end of the season.

Last Weekend West Ham earned themselves a 3-1 victory over Luton following goals from Ward-Prowse, Soucek and Earthy which meant it was a winning end to his final game at London Stadium. It was a deserved win too The Hammers had 58% of possession 24 shots for an XG of 3.71 to their opponents' 4 shots and XG of 0.71.

Moyes may be departing following this fixture but the former Man United manager would love a City scalp before pulling the curtain down on his role at West Ham.

Key Players To Watch

Phil Foden – Man City

The Manchester maestro is tremendously versatile playing across all four positions in the front four this season making him a key cog in the Guardiola side. Across 51 games in all competitions this season he has 25 goals and 11 assists from 51 games which is a strong record. However, even when not directly contributing to goals his presence on the pitch can always be felt.

Jarrod Bowen – West Ham

One player whose performances do not gather the plaudits they deserve is Hammers attacker Bowen (27) who in all competitions this season has 20 goals and 10 assists from 44 games. Bowen is tactically adaptable and while traditionally a winger has seen himself employed as a central attacker this season more often than not with his pace and clinical finishing on the counterattack devastating sides that he has come up against.

Man City v West Ham Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Man City 3-0 West Ham

The City juggernaut has shown no signs of letting up in the league for weeks now and yet their lead is so slender at the top of the table that the faintest of slip-ups and they could open the door for Arsenal to pounce.

West Ham have nothing to lose in this game, so it’ll be interesting to see how they approach the game both tactically and in terms of personnel but in the interest of competition I do reckon Moyes names a strong side.

Never say never, but I can’t see anything other than a comfortable City victory at the weekend.

Best Bet: Under 3.5 Goals and Man City Win @ 15/8
