Head-to-Head Record
Manchester City
In the overall head-to-head stakes, City are in front of their Premier League counterparts with 53 win and 37 defeats in all competitions
Recent Form
Pellegrini's side have had a mixed bag of results in recent weeks, with one win, two draws and two defeats during their previous five league games. The Hammers have scored in their last four matches, but their last clean sheet came in September when they held Chelsea to a goalless draw on home soil.
By contrast, City comfortably beat rivals Manchester United at the Etihad before the international break as they have scored 36 goals and conceded just five from their 12 encounters this season.
Here's how each team has performed in their last five matches:
West Ham | Manchester City |
Huddersfield 1-1 West Ham (10/11) | Man City 3-1 Man United (11/11) |
West Ham 4-2 Burnley (3/11) | Man City 6-0 Shakhtar Donetsk (7/11) |
West Ham 1-3 Tottenham (31/10) | Man City 6-1 Southampton (4/11) |
Leicester 1-1 West Ham (27/10) | Man City 2-0 Fulham (1/11) |
West Ham 0-1 Tottenham (20/10) | Tottenham 0-1 Man City (29/10) |
Prediction
There is no stopping the Manchester City steam train at this moment in time. The London Stadium has been a happy hunting ground for the Premier League champions in recent seasons, with not only wins to their names, but a bagful of goals to boot.
