West Ham vs Manchester City, Premier League 2020-21, Match Prediction

West Ham United hosts Manchester City at London Stadium on Saturday evening in the Premier League 2020-21.

Match Timings: Oct 24, 5 PM 

Team Preview 

West Ham welcome Man City to extend their winning run in the ongoing Premier League 2020-21. Pep Guardiola's side had a terrific record at London Stadium, winning all five of their previous matches and they netted 22 goals and conceded just one. The city has shipped four or more goals at Hammer’s new home ground in five successive matches. Under Guardiola, City has won all nine meetings with West Ham and they would aim to add 10th on Saturday. Manchester City could be without Aymeric Laporte, Nathan Ake, Benjamin Mendy and Fernandinho from their defense. In their opening Champions League fixture against Porto, they bounced back after trailing one-goal behind to take 3-1 victory. In Premier League, they found the rhythm with a 1-0 victory over Arsenal last weekend and moved to 11th place in the table.  

Hammers are sitting above Manchester City and for the first time, they are heading into this game with a tag of favourites. David Moyes's side pulled off a great comeback against Tottenham with Manuel Lanzini's 94th-minute equaliser. They become the first team in the tournament history to avoid defeat after trailing by three or more goals. In a recent home game, they thrashed Wolves 4-0 and they have scored three or more goals in last three home games. The city might be optimistic as they are unbeaten in their previous five away games across all competitions.
