The Hammers face a difficult test before the first international break of the new season
The Hammers have recovered from their 2-1 defeat by Aston Villa on the opening day by beating Crystal Palace and Bournemouth in the top-flight and Carabao Cup respectively.
Reigning champions City’s visit, however, provides a much sterner test of their credentials under new manager Julen Lopetegui.
Pep Guardiola’s side have picked up straight where they left off last season and sit top of the table heading into this weekend’s action, having dispatched both Chelsea and Ipswich after winning the Community Shield on penalties at Wembley.
