West Ham vs Manchester City Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Premier League 2024-25

The Sky Blues are the best-scoring team in the league.

Defending champions Manchester City will be travelling to West Ham’s home for their third game of the Premier League 2024-25. The team from Manchester have started from where they ended last season, currently having two dominating wins in two games with six points.

West Ham United FC are also having an impressive run. They won the second-round game of the EFL Cup against AFC Bournemouth and were also dominant in the last PL game against Crystal Palace.

With two recent wins in the belt, the hosts will surely look to challenge Manchester City. However, things could be a bit tough for them.

Form

Players to Watch:

Aaron Wan-Bissaka (West Ham)

The big-money signing from Manchester United is expected to start in this game. He played only 28 minutes on his debut for the club and guarded the defence efficiently. The 26-year-old is known for his pace and quality tackles. He will be expected to diffuse the chances created and shots taken from the lethal forwards of Manchester City.

Erling Haaland (Manchester City)

Top scorer from last season, Erling Haaland is leaving no stone unturned to achieve a similar tally again. He has scored in both games, which includes an impressive hat trick against Ipswich Town in the last game. Haaland will look to score in the third fixture. Being one of the best in the business, he should be able to scare the West Ham defence.
