West Ham United vs Manchester City Preview: Probable Lineups... (The Hard Tackle)

West Ham and Manchester City are set to square off in their opening game of the new Premier League season, with both teams hoping to get off to a strong ...

The hosts can make life difficult for the champions, with David Moyes’s side possessing strengths in their usual blind spots: counter-attacks, aerial battles, and set pieces. The Algerian winger is likely to feature in the final third, with star signing Haaland expected to start up front after firing a blank against Liverpool in the Community Shield. So, an electric, high-scoring encounter could be on the cards in what is set to be an exciting clash between two different styles. The West Ham attack could be spearheaded by Michail Antonio, who endured a slump in form at the back end of last season. - Pep Guardiola’s side fell to a 1-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur in their opening game last season. Bernardo Silva will slot into the right central midfield role, whereas Kevin De Bruyne is expected to start in the attacking midfield position. Manchester City have also reinforced their star-studded midfield roster with the addition of Kalvin Phillips, as they look to defend their Premier League crown. Having said that, West Ham were below-par in pre-season and ended the 2021/22 Premier League campaign in poor form. Joao Cancelo played the highest number of minutes of any Manchester City player across all competitions last season. However, West Ham will have to play out of their skins to get a result here. Vladimir Coufal and Aaron Cresswell will be the two full-backs, with the latter on set-piece duty. While Raheem Sterling and Oleksandr Zinchenko have departed, a world-class striker has arrived in the form of Erling Haaland, alongside another top young attacking talent in Julian Alvarez.

City are red-hot 8/13 favourites with Betway, while the hosts are 7/1 to take the biggest scalp of all. With that in mind, it might not be wise to pile into City at cramped odds this time. However, the layers expect City to kick their title defence off with a win at West Ham on Sunday afternoon.

We don’t want to just fill it for the sake of filling it, so we are trying to get in the best players we possibly can. With first summer signing Nayef Aguerd out with injury and Angelo Ogbonna still “ three or four weeks” away from first team action, the likely defensive partnership will be Kurt Zouma and Craig Dawson. Latest signing Maxwel Cornet has not been registered in time, and will therefore be unavailable to start against the Premier League champions. Former West Ham target Nathan Ake is also likely to start after an impressive pre-season. As for Manchester City, Aymeric Laporte will not be included on Sunday due to undergoing knee surgery. West Ham boast the signings of Nayef Aguerd, Alphonse Areola, Flynn Downes, and Gianluca Scamacca. The game finished 2-2, with Riyad Mahrez missing a penalty right at the death.

West Ham v Man City: Champions to kick-off with a win (Betting.betfair)

Paul Higham is backing Man City to beat West Ham with both teams to score with Kevin De Bruyne to shine in a 10/1 Bet Builder.

He's 1.738/11 to have 3+ shots here in a game he'll be eager to impress in. City are short enough at 1.42/5 but with a 13-game unbeaten streak against the Hammers that's fair enough. Antonio had a shot on target in six of eight to end last season, and is 1.834/5 for another, but Bowen looks a value bet at 2.01/1 for just a single shot on target - which was his average per 90 minutes of his impressive season last year. Haaland has had a hand in seven goals in his last three season openers, with a goal for RB Salzburg in 2019, followed two goals for Dortmund in 2020 and two goals & two assists for the Black and Yellow last season. West Ham have a lot of the right ingredients to get some joy against City - especially right out of the gate in a new season with plenty of player turnover, but City have lost just once in 28 let's not forget, and went unbeaten in 18 on the road after losing at Tottenham last season. The Hammers drew with City and beat Liverpool last season at home, so they can be a match for anyone, and Moyes will want a fast start to the season with a long, hard road ahead of them this term.

Chris Sutton is worried by the injuries in defence that West Ham have, as he predicted them to suffer a heavy defeat to Manchester City on the opening day.

They spent a few quid on defender Nayef Aguerd earlier this summer, but he is out injured. City have added several top players to their ranks this summer and while West Ham fans are happy with their business so far, it’s likely to mean very little if none of them are in the team for the game.

He will get chances here at the London Stadium and I'm going to have a smaller play on the Norwegian notching himself a brace. It remains to be seen how City line up in defence now that Zinchenko has left the club and Aymeric Laporte is out through injury. David Moyes will hope that his side can capitalise on any possible lack of match sharpness given City only played two pre-season friendlies prior to their defeat in the Community Shield last weekend.

Bet Builder Tips: Sunday's slick 6/1 picks for West Ham v Man City (Paddy Power News)

We'll start with Jarrod Bowen who averaged 2.52 shots per start last season, and was a huge threat against Manchester City in this exact fixture four months ago ...

At the London stadium, West Ham have had three or more corners in 10 out of 11 games. West Ham had a superb corner record in the Premier League last season. In City’s visit to the London Stadium in May, West Ham racked up 3 yellow cards. Man City proved to be far from defensively solid in last weekend’s Community Shield loss to Liverpool, where they conceded 15 shots against The Reds so we’ve a great chance of Jarrod Bowen Having 2 Or More Shots here. So, we’ve enlisted the clever folk over at ValueBetSpotter to do a deep-dive into West Ham’s tie against last year’s champions Manchester City and found a Bet Builder that we hope will kick off the season in style. West Ham’s 2-2 draw with Man City in May saw Bowen hit four shots, including two goals.

We simulated West Ham vs Manchester City to get a score prediction (Manchester Evening News)

Man City face a trip to West Ham United for their Premier League opening game on Sunday afternoon, so we simulated the game to get a score prediction.

FIFA 22 predicts that Man City could breeze to a 2-0 win on Sunday afternoon, with Guardiola's side unlucky not to score more. Haaland was brought down in the box by Dawson with five minutes remaining, giving Guardiola's side the chance to make it three. A quick passing move saw City make seven passes inside the West Ham box, looking for a gap to break through. To complete this simulation, we used FIFA 22 and updated the squads with the latest transfers. John Stones is also yet to return to feature in pre-season, so it will most likely be Nathan Ake partnering Ruben Dias. Pep Guardiola will be hoping for a more straightforward result this time round, with almost a fully-fit squad at his disposal.

West Ham vs Man City LIVE updates from Premier League opener (Manchester Evening News)

Manchester City kick off the new season as they begin their title defence at West Ham this afternoon.

They struggled here two years ago when Phil Foden was needed off the bench to salvage a draw, were knocked out of the Carabao Cup last season and then fell two goals behind in May before coming from behind in the second half only for Riyad Mahrez to miss a penalty to win it. Liverpool's result at Fulham yesterday possibly makes things easier for them though, and Guardiola may well remind people that City lost their first game last season at Spurs but still went on to win the title. But this is a tough game to kick off the Premier League season, and Guardiola may opt for a more familiar Dias-Stones pairing. He’s fitter than Erling Haaland at the moment and in better form after pre-season, but will surely start on the bench because he’s not Erling Haaland. City have stressed that Alvarez needs time, even though he didn’t take long to make an impact last weekend. They’ll have to be better than they were last weekend to get off to a good start today. Haaland says he will use that outing as motivation for City's Premier League kick-off, and Pep Guardiola isn't concerned as he warned: "Be careful what you say because he's going to deny all the opinions and score goals." Rico Lewis and Josh Wilson-Esbrand are with the squad at the London Stadium, and that’s not much of a surprise. It took Erling Haaland 12 minutes to announce himself as a Manchester City goalscorer in pre-season, and apparently just 90 minutes against Liverpool to become a flop again. Both are the back-up options at wing-back as City have very few options in those areas, and both will be looking to build on their promising pre-season performances. There probably isn’t too much to look into in terms of Bernardo starting on the bench. Bernardo being on the bench will only fuel the thought that something isn’t quite right amid Barcelona’s very public pursuit of him, but there are footballing reasons to start Ilkay Gundogan today.
