For about five minutes after Ipswich took the lead against Man City, the Premier League wondered if perhaps this would be the season the four-times defending champs would run out of steam, then Erling Haaland scored two in four minutes, either side a Kevin De Bruyne strike, City were 3-1 up, and the unrelenting Pep Guardiola machine proved it’s just as well-oiled as ever. Man City are now top of the table and will look to stay there with their third straight win of the new season.
West Ham were labeled the “transfer market champions” by many thanks to their glut of (on-paper) strong singings, but the East London club have endured a mixed start to the season. Opening weekend defeat to Aston Villa was a frustrating result, and while the most recent victory over Crystal Palace was enjoyable, the Hammer did ride their luck at times. They will need another very hefty dose of good fortune to take anything from this match.
Here's how they line up:
West Ham: Areola, Wan-Bissaka, Mavropanos, Kilman, Emerson, Alvarez, Paqueta, Rodriguez, Kudus, Antonio, Bowen.
Man City: Ederson, Lewis, Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol, Kovacic, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Doku, Grealish, Haaland.
The West Ham vs Man City live stream is a Premier League match you won’t want to miss because, like them or loathe them, Man City always puts on a show. Plus, make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
