West Ham vs Man City: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds

West Ham host Manchester City in the last round of Premier League fixtures before the international break.

The Hammers have now recorded two consecutive wins under Julen Lopetegui, f ollowing up their 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace last weekend by beating Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night.

Hosting a rampant City, however, is clearly a much more difficult task.

Pep Guardiola’s side thrashed Ipswich 4-1 last time out despite falling behind and currently sit top of the table, albeit at this very early stage of the campaign.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

West Ham vs Man City team news

Lopetegui handed full debuts to Jean-Clair Todibo and Niclas Fulkrug on Wednesday, so perhaps both will start again. Lucas Paqueta and Mohammed Kudus are expected to return, although Aaron Cresswell will likely miss out due to a hamstring complaint.

City were without Phil Foden and Rodri for their win over Ipswich and Guardiola will no doubt provide an update on Friday.
