West Ham XI vs Man City – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

West Ham make the trip to Manchester City this weekend looking for a response.

Julen Lopetegui’s side saw their four-game unbeaten run ended emphatically by Premier League leaders Liverpool last time out. A humiliating home defeat saw the visitors win 5-0 at the London Stadium to pile the pressure on the Spaniard’s position. West Ham enter the new year in 13th position with hopes of European football fading fast.

Lopetegui’s task does not get easier against a Manchester City side who have dominated this fixture. The Irons have failed to beat Pep Guardiola’s side in the last 18 league meetings between the teams. City responded to their own troubles with a 2-0 win at Leicester City in their most recent fixture.
