West Ham v Manchester City: match preview

West Ham v Manchester City
West Ham v Manchester City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Illustration: Guardian

Manchester City need only four more points to retain their title. They will be confident of moving closer towards their goal after their thrashing of Wolves. Kevin De Bruyne should be full of belief after scoring four goals at Molineux but West Ham will be determined to make life difficult for Pep Guardiola’s side. They still have a chance of snatching sixth place off Manchester United and will want to make Mark Noble’s final game before retirement one to remember. Jacob Steinberg
