They have also been performing exceptionally well on their home turf this season, with an average of 2.69 Points Per Game, while West Ham United have only managed 0.8 Points Per Game away from home.

Manchester City will keep an eye on Kevin de Bruyne, who missed the game over Fulham due to a minor injury. Nathan Ake has returned to training following a hamstring injury and might be included. West Ham are examining defender Kurt Zouma’s ankle injury, but he might be sidelined for several weeks.

In the absence of Ake, Manuel Akanji has excelled as a substitute left-back in the previous two games, and he might remain in that capacity with fellow defenders Kyle Walker, John Stones, and Ruben Dias if City’s No.6 is ruled out.Alvarez was chosen to replace De Bruyne in the starting lineup against Fulham, and his good performance might earn him another start in attack with Haaland, while Riyad Mahrez, Phil Foden, and Bernardo Silva are poised to battle for a spot on the right wing.

With these factors in mind, our prediction is that Manchester City will win this match with a scoreline of 2-0.
