West Ham United go to their opening game of the season with champions Manchester City, with odds heavily against them even as they play at home. The Hammers have not been very great performers when it comes to the Manchester clubs but they will be hoping for a change here. They have lost all their last nine meetings with City and have no win in any of their last 10 meetings with the champions. They go to this game on two losses and six wins in their last 10 matches, while they need to improve defensively, having picked just three clean sheets in their last 10 matches. They have scored in four of their last five matches. Playing at home, West Ham have two wins in five matches and have scored two goals in four of their last five matches. In the Premier League, they have two losses and seven wins in the last 12 home matches. City on the other hand, carry a run of 12 wins in their last 15 matches but also have defensive concerns going to this game, having managed just a clean sheet in the last five games, and five clean sheets in their last 10 matches. They have scored in 13 of their last 15 matches. In the Premier League, they have seven straight wins away from home, and one loss in 10 away. They have scored in each of the last 11 away games in the league and head to head, in 102 meetings with West Ham, City have 53 wins, 20 more than West Ham’s.
