Relegation threatened West Ham face a daunting task on Saturday, as they face title hopefuls Manchester City at the Etihad. 

The 3-2 defeat at home to Aston Villa last weekend means West Ham are still three points from safety and have now gone five Premier League games without a victory. Whilst performances have improved since Nuno Espirito Santos took over as manager, the Hammers urgently need to get some wins on the board if they want to stay in touch with the teams above the drop zone. 

After a patchy start to the campaign, Manchester City have found their top form in the last month. Sunday's 0-3 win at Crystal Palace was their fourth Premier League win in a row, and another three points on Saturday would take them above Arsenal at the top of the table ahead of the Gunners' evening game at Everton.

Our Manchester City vs West Ham Prediction

City are almost back to their brilliant best, and that spells trouble for a West Ham side struggling at the wrong end of the table. 

It has now been over three and a half months since the Hammers kept a clean sheet, so a visit to the Etihad is the absolute last thing that Nuno Espirito Santos needs at the moment. 

Erling Haaland and Phil Foden have been in sensational goalscoring form during City's four game winning run, and given the Hammers' awful defensive record, we are backing the duo to both find the net on Saturday. 

Our prediction for Manchester City vs West Ham United is: Erling Haaland and Phil Foden to score.

Prediction:
