West Ham v Manchester City: match preview

West Ham v Manchester City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Photograph: X

Manchester City have won all five of their London Stadium visits, scoring 22 goals. Pep Guardiola’s side could be boosted by the return of Kevin De Bruyne, so West Ham need to avoid the sauntering pace they started at against Tottenham. If they defend properly, though, David Moyes’ side have a chance which could be boosted by a first West Ham appearance for Saïd Benrahma. Jacob Steinberg
