Match Preview: Westham Vs Manchester City

Hello everyone,

The English premier is finally back after the long wait there was lots of actions yesterday and more coming up today And I’m here with a match preview between West ham United (The Hammers ⚒️) and Manchester City ( The Cityzens)

Fueled by the disappointment of lasts season UEFA Europa League semifinals exit, West ham Manager David Moyes has reinforced West ham’s frontline with Gianluca Scamacca who scored 16 goals in the Serie A last season for Sassuolo, the Italian is one of five signings for West ham in the summer transfer window as they’re looking to fight for both European and Domestic front this campaign.

Those new addition may not be enough to match the current champions, hoping to retain the tittle and also getting a European title Manchester City Manager Pep Guardiola has gone big in the summer transfer window adding one of the best strikers in the world Erling Bräut Haaland from Dortmund and Kalvin Phillips from Leeds United. The tittle holders last season's opening game lost made it their 3rd in the last 6 seasons, the champions are also unbeaten in their last 18 Premier League away matches so they wouldn’t want to add another lost to that record.
