Man City vs West Ham United Preview
The Premier League fixture of Man City vs West Ham United could turn out to be the deciding factor for this season’s title race. All Man City needs is a win in this fixture over the Hammers to lift the 2023-2024 Premier League title. If Pep Guardiola’s side gets all three points against West Ham, Arsenal’s win over Everton in their last fixture of this season will not affect the overall title scenario.
On the other hand, if City loses this match, and Arsenal wins against the Toffees, the Gunners would be crowned champions. While, if City go on to draw the game against David Moyes’ side, and Arsenal wins their match, it would come down to goal difference. Additionally, if Man City manages a draw on the last match-day and the Gunners lose against Everton, City would still be crowned the champions.
As far as West Ham United are concerned Europe looks highly unlikely for them now, as Newcastle United, and Chelsea, are the teams placed above them and looking more likely to get there. However, if they manage to spring a surprise against City at Etihad and register a win, and Man United who are just above them on the table lose their last fixture of the season, then the Hammers could finish above United at the eighth spot in the table.
