Man City vs West Ham Predictions and Betting Tips

We open this weekend's set of fixtures at the Etihad Stadium as City play hosts to West Ham on Saturday. The Hammers have put themselves in the discussion for Champions League qualification. However, will they be able to stop City 19-game winning streak to further boost their chances?

The Cityzens have been absolutely dominant in this fixture over the past few seasons. Their last loss in this fixture dates back to the 2015/2016 season- an impressive run that has spanned across 13 games. West Ham managed to hold the Cityzens to a one-all draw in the reverse game early this season.

City soaring on

Pep Guardiola’s side recorded yet another win during the week, beating Monchengladbach in the first leg of their last 16 ties in the UCL. This would be their 19th consecutive victory in all competitions. The tie looks done and dusted and with the Manchester-based side 10 points clear at the top, they would certainly take some stopping for the remainder of the season.

Hammers in unfamiliar territory

West Ham are currently in 4th place two ahead of Chelsea, and five ahead of defending champions, Liverpool. They have been doing well for themselves having won three of their last four league games. On-loan Jesse Lingard netted the winner in the most recent game against Spurs as the Hammers emerged 2-1 winner in the London derby.
