Manchester City don’t half love the
London Stadium. Since West Ham United moved into their new gaff back in 2016, City have paid a visit on four occasions. They’ve gone back with the spoils every time, always enjoying themselves immensely in the process: 0-5, 0-4, 1-4, 0-4. Throw in three wins at the Etihad, and City are on a seven-game winning streak against the Hammers.
Factor this in too: Pep Guardiola’s treble-winning champions are effectively on a 14-match winning streak in the Premier League. For that is how they finished off last season, how they finished off Liverpool. They’re not half bad, this lot. West Ham - who have lost an unprecedented 12 opening-day fixtures in the Premier League era - have their work cut out today.
