Manchester City have been competing in the title race for the English Premier League. They will be playing West Ham United in the final day of the league at home. The Sky Blues are on the verge of winning the championship for the 4th consecutive time, they will be the first English club to achieve the milestone for the first time in the history of the game. Pep Guardiola's side have been one of the most dominant sides in the league over a few recent years. 

On the other hand West Ham United under David Moyes has performed decently in the season as they sit 9th in the league table, they have given some shock to Liverpool by earning a 2-2 draw and the experienced coach also defeated Arsenal at their home stadium, back in December. They will look to finish the league high on confidence by upsetting the table toppers. 

In the reverse fixture, they lost 1-3 at home despite scoring early in the game. The former Everton coach would like his student Mikel Arteta to win the PL after 20 years as well. The game on Sunday will be a blockbuster one, as this is the 10th season that the champions will be decided on the final day.

Manchester City vs West Ham United: Prediction

Manchester City have been dominating the PL over the years and have the best squad depth in the side with star footballers everywhere on the pitch and the bench as well. Erling Haaland who was having a rough patch in the season has been in the goals as he scored a brace in the last game against Tottenham Hotspur. The Norwegian striker has scored 26 goals in the season so far and would look to score some more on the weekend. 

The West London side have been inconsistent in the season however they have won their last game and will look to finish their campaign with a win. Jarrod Bowen has been a consistent performer for the side scoring 16 goals and have 6 assists to his name. He will look to add on to his tally on Sunday. 

Prediction: 1-1 Draw
