Manchester City vs West Ham United 19.05.2024 Prediction: Premier League

Match Overview

Manchester City need nothing short of a win against West Ham United in their final Premier League encounter at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester on May 19, Saturday. West Ham will do everything in their power to ensure that they do not allow their opponents to creep towards victory and pick up their third Premier League title in a row.

Key Highlights 

City have been one of the best teams in the league this season and as a result, are ranked 1st in goals scored per match (2.5 goals). Manchester City haven't lost to West Ham United in their last 5 meetings (4W, 1D). Erling Haaland is the competition's top scorer (27) and will be expected to play a crucial role for them in this game on the final day of the competition.

Injury Report

While Ederson Moraes is a doubtful starter for Manchester City in this game, West Ham may have to make do without the services of Kalvin Phillips and Nayef Aguerd among others.

Prediction

City are the downright favourites to win this game, and we expect them to do so quite comfortably in the end. West Ham, however, are ranked 8th in goals scored per match (1.6 goals), which means that they have not been at their best. They have also conceded the most penalties this season (10). What will worry them a lot is that they haven't kept a clean sheet in 11 matches.
