Man City Lineup vs West Ham OUT: Premier League 2025

It's matchday 17 in the English Premier League as Manchester City take on West Ham in the third game of the list of Saturday fixtures. Both teams will have different approaches to this game, as Man City look to go top of the table for the time being with a win, while West Ham are in desperate need of a victory to pull themselves out of the relegation zone.

City sit second in the league with just two points behind Arsenal, after the Gunners dropped points against Aston Villa. The Cityzens have had their fair share of ups and downs this season, but have picked up at the right time with dominating wins against Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League and a thumping 3-0 away win against Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace. A win would take them to 37 points, just a point above Arsenal, who are yet to play their dedicated fixture against Everton.

West Ham, on the other hand, have been quite awful this season so far. With just three wins and nine losses out of their first 16 games, the Hammers find themselves in 18th place in the league table. Graham Potter was sacked in September and was replaced by manager Nuno Espirito Santo. The Portuguese is trying his level best, but West Ham continue to struggle, as they are winless in their last five games. A win here will surely boost their morale for the remainder of the season.

Ahead of the exciting clash, you might be wondering about the Man City lineup vs West Ham, which consists of so many world-class players taking the field to prove a point.
