Julen Lopetegui starts with a loss at the helm of West Ham after a 1:2 defeat in the first round against Aston Villa. However, his team responded with a victory afterwards, with a 2:0 win away to Crystal Palace, as well as a 1:0 success at home against Bournemouth in the cup tournament during the week. The coach is now facing a much more serious challenge, as West Ham has been winless in 17 consecutive matches against City in the Premier League (3 draws and 14 losses).
Manchester City with 11 consecutive wins in the Premier LeagueManchester City did not make a mistake in the first two rounds with their victories away against Chelsea and at home against Ipswich. Thus, extending from last season, they now have 11 consecutive wins in the Premier League. At the same time, they are unbeaten in 21 consecutive league matches. In addition, City has not conceded a goal and has scored at least two in their last five away matches in the Premier League.
Prediction: City to win and over 1.5 goalsWest Ham has not been performing well lately against City. Julen Lopetegui will now try to change that, but it will not be easy for him and I rather expect another victory for City here.
