Manchester City are 90 minutes away from a fourth successive Premier League title as they prepare to welcome West Ham United to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday. As we look ahead to what could potentially be a history-making Premier League fixture this weekend, here at betting.bet we will provide the latest team news, match insights and expert betting tips as well as the latest free bet offers and odds from our partners at bet365.
Form
Manchester City take a two-point lead into the final round of Premier League matches thanks to their 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday. Pep Guardiola’s side have earned eight straight league wins all by a margin of two goals or more and now sit on 88 points from their 37 matches. If Manchester City avoid defeat on Sunday they would’ve gone the entire campaign without a single defeat at home.
It’s the end of an era for West Ham United as David Moyes takes charge of the Hammers for the last time. With 52 points from their 37 matches, West Ham United are guaranteed a ninth place finish but Moyes will want to end his second spell as Hammers boss on a high.
West Ham United overturned a half-time deficit last Saturday to earn a 3-1 home win against Luton Town but away from home they have conceded five goals in back-to-back league games against Crystal Palace (5-2) and Chelsea (5-0).
Manchester City v West Ham United: Head-to-Head
West Ham United have not won a league game against Manchester City since 2015 and lost the corresponding fixture at the Etihad last season 3-0 thanks to goals from Nathan Ake, Erling Haaland and Phil Foden. This season’s reverse fixture played at the London Stadium in September saw Manchester City run out comfortable 3-1 winners despite trailing at half-time. James Ward-Prowse fired West Ham into the lead before Manchester City hit back through Jeremy Doku, Bernardo Silva and Erling Haaland.
Betting Tips
Since joining Manchester City, Erling Haaland has scored four goals in three games against West Ham United and the Premier League’s top goalscorer heads into Sunday’s clash in red-hot form having scored seven goals in Manchester City’s last four league games. The Norwegian is set to claim a second straight Premier League Golden Boot and will inevitably be popular in Sunday’s various goalscorer markets. Below is a list of Erling Haaland related bets worth real consideration.
| Erling Haaland Goalscorer Specials | Odds |
|---|---|
| To score at any time | 4/11 |
| First goalscorer | 11/5 |
| Last goalscorer | 11/5 |
| To score 2 or more | 6/4 |
| To score a hat-trick | 5/1 |
| To score a header | 6/1 |
Manchester City’s eight straight wins by two goals or more coupled by West Ham’s poor away form, we’re expecting the champions-elect to put Sunday’s visitors to the sword at the Etihad. Manchester City to win and over 3.5 match goals is superb value at 8/13 whilst Manchester City to win both halves is also worth real consideration at 8/11.
