Manchester City will be looking to extend their rollicking start to the Premier League season when they host West Ham United at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
The Citizens are leading the points table after winning all of their five league games, wherein they scored 11 goals and conceded none.
Manuel Pellegrini’s side started their campaign with back-to-back 3-0 wins over West Bromwich Albion and reigning Premier League champions Chelsea before defeating Everton and newly-promoted Watford with 0-2 scoreline.
A hard-fought 1-0 win over Crystal Palace last week extended their advantage over Chelsea to 11 points, but their winning momentum was stalled with a 2-1 Champions League defeat to Italian champions Juventus at Eastlands on Tuesday.
West Ham, on the other hand, are placed fifth in the league standing after winning three and losing two of their first five games.
The Hammers began their campaign with a 2-0 win over Arsenal before suffering a 1-2 defeat to Leicester City and 4-3 loss to Bournemouth but recovered in a sublime fashion to register 0-3 and 0-2 wins over Liverpool and Newcastle United.
