"Disappointing" is an understatement to describe Manchester City's Champions League performance against Real Madrid on Wednesday, losing 3-0 in a magical night for Valverde, while for the Sky Blues, Haaland was virtually invisible and had a game to forget. Now, this weekend, Guardiola's team must be careful not to also jeopardize their chances of winning the league title if they fail to beat West Ham on Saturday.
In matchday 29, Semenyo and Rodri scored a pair of goals that only served to secure a draw against Nottingham Forest. City hasn't lost in the Premier League since November 22nd, but the draw against the Tricky Trees felt like handing the league title to Arsenal. The Citizens are the favorites in the pre-match betting to beat West Ham with odds of 1.69. However, the Hammers face a crucial match on Saturday.
West Ham advanced in the FA Cup on penalties. However, their 1-0 victory in the London derby against Fulham, secured by a goal from Summerville, means the Hammers are now just one point behind Nottingham Forest and two behind struggling Tottenham. Overtaking them in the table would mean avoiding relegation for Nuno Espírito Santo's side.

Our West Ham vs Manchester City Prediction
Guardiola's team will play just three days after their embarrassing performance in Madrid, and after the match in London against West Ham, they will look to overturn the deficit against Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium three days later. If there is a chance for West Ham to shake off City's dominance, it's on Saturday.
West Ham's English striker Jarrod Bowen has been one of the key figures in the London team's February-March resurgence; when he scored, he opened the scoring for West Ham in 3 of his last 4 goal-scoring appearances.
Our prediction for West Ham vs Manchester City is: West Ham to win or draw.
