West Ham will be looking to pull off another upset when they welcome Manchester City to the London Stadium in Saturday’s Premier League clash.

Having started the season under something of a cloud, David Moyes’ team are defying expectations with their free-scoring recent performances – having already scored more than 22 per cent of the goals they managed last term in just 13% of games.
Although ending their lengthy losing streak against this opposition may just be a step too far, they will certainly back themselves to cause problems for an injury-stricken Citizens backline considering they have scored 16 times in the last five fixtures.
