Betting on Manchester City
Manchester City continues on top of the Premier League standings after a 2-1 victory against Fulham last Sunday, following its impressive 4-1 win over Arsenal a week ago. However, to maintain its position, the team needs to take advantage of the two remaining matches it has pending.
Manchester City’s next challenge is against West Ham, a team it hasn’t lost to in the league since 2015. In fact, this team has recorded 11 wins and three draws against West Ham since then, including a 2-0 victory in the first match this season.
The team has a great chance of continuing its dominance over West Ham, especially considering it is the best team in the Premier League when playing at home, with 43 out of 48 possible points earned, and 14 out of 16 matches won at home.
Possible Lineup (3-2-4-1): Ederson; Kyle Walker, Ruben Dias, Manuel Akanji; John Stones, Rodri; Jack Grealish, Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, Riyad Mahrez; Erling Haaland.
Betting on West Ham
A streak of two consecutive losses in the league has not only halted West Ham’s great moment, but has also dragged the team back into the relegation battle, placing it in the 15th position of the standings, just five points away from the drop zone.
West Ham‘s most recent defeat came last Saturday in an exciting match against Crystal Palace, which ended in a 4-3 scoreline. However, the positive aspect of this setback is that West Ham’s offense managed to maintain its good performance, scoring in each of their last 12 appearances.
Having another great offensive performance could be the key for this team to rescue a positive result in this clash, considering that it has lost in 12 of its last 13 visits to Manchester City, including the last six.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Lukasz Fabianski; Vladimir Coufal, Nayef Aguerd, Kurt Zouma, Emerson; Tomas Soucek, Declan Rice; Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqueta, Said Benrahma; Michail Antonio.
JefeBet Prediction
Manchester City is in an enviable form and, even though its schedule is packed, the team has a deep lineup to overcome it with ease. In fact, the team faces a West Ham lineup that has started to decline and struggles to play at the Etihad Stadium.
Under Pep Guardiola’s coaching, Manchester City has scored at least three goals in 11 out of 13 home games in 2023. Therefore, we expect it to exploit the weaknesses of a visiting defense that has conceded six goals in the last two matches. Given these numbers, at JefeBet, we predict that the Citizens will win comfortably the upcoming Manchester City vs West Ham thrilling encounter.
Prediction: Manchester City Asian Handicap (MCI 3-0 WES).
