West Ham United head into this game after an important 1–0 victory over Fulham which helped their survival chances.

That result means they’ve now lost just once across their last five Premier League matches (W2, D2), suggesting the Hammers have found some stability at a crucial stage of the season.

Their home form has also improved slightly.

West Ham are unbeaten in their last three league games at the London Stadium (W1, D2), which should give them confidence ahead of facing one of the strongest attacking sides in the division.

Manchester City, meanwhile, come into the match after a disappointing 3–0 Champions League defeat to Real Madrid.

With Pep Guardiola’s side starting the round seven points behind leaders Arsenal, dropping further points in the league would be a major setback, meaning a strong response is expected.

Historically this has been a very favourable matchup for City.

They are unbeaten in the last 20 Premier League meetings between the sides (W17, D3), winning the last seven encounters and scoring at least three goals in each of the previous six.

City have also enjoyed their visits to the London Stadium, avoiding defeat in all nine league matches there (W7, D2).

With their attacking quality and the urgency to respond after the midweek loss, City have every chance of starting this match on the front foot.

Given their dominance in recent meetings and the overall difference in squad quality, backing Manchester City to take the lead before half-time looks like a reasonable option in this matchup.
