City firing on all cylinders
Last Saturday Man City dominated a hapless Everton, winning 3-0 before turning their attention to Wednesday nights Champions League fixture versus Paris St Germain where they came out 2-1 winners.
PSG took the lead early in the second half despite City dominating the first half of play. However, once Raheem Sterling equalised it was inevitable that City would go on to get the winner as Gabriel Jesus scored 14 minutes from time.
Bernardo Silva led the line for City in a team where goals come from any source. Silva, along with Ilkay Gundogan are the only City players to score the first goal multiple times (twice).

Hammers winning streak over
After a 1-0 defeat to Wolves last Saturday, West Ham’s four game winning streak came to an end. However, they got straight back on the horse with a 2-0 away win in the Europa League against Rapid Vienna.
This will be the Hammers’ second away league match in a row and with the Rapid Vienna match also played away this represents a fair bit of travel in the space of eight days.
It remains to be seen how much this will affect West Ham – especially considering their great away form, but either way fixtures don’t come much tougher than Man City away.
Manchester City vs West Ham United predictions
This should be an entertaining game at the Etihad involving two attacking sides. City will be full of confidence after their recent run of wins in the Premier League and Wednesday’s victory over PSG.
City head coach, Pep Guardiola is unbeaten against West Ham winning nine of ten, scoring 28 goals and conceding just five. City have only conceded two goals at home all season. Man City to win to nil came in last week, we’ve seen nothing that says this will change this week.
With so many players capable of scoring for Man City it is dangerous to pick one to score first, especially with the first six players listed coming in at 9/2 or less. Top scorer Bernardo Silva, a player who has scored in two straight, however, is generously priced at 19/10 to score anytime, we believe this is the way to go.
