Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:
Manchester City
In the 17th round of the Premier League, Manchester City eliminated Brentford 2-0 at home in the EFL Cup quarter-finals midweek to advance to the next roundâreaching the EFL Cup semi-finals for the first time since the 2020/21 season (when they won the trophy). Coupled with the previous league victory, Manchester City have secured a six-match winning streak, with excellent team form. Currently sitting 2nd in the Premier League with 34 points, they are only 2 points behind leaders Arsenal. In the midweek EFL Cup, Bobb unfortunately suffered another injury; combined with two players called up to their national teams for the European Championship, Manchester City have as many as 5 unavailable players. According to media reports, John Stones is expected to return to the squad this round, which will be a significant boost for Manchester City.

West Ham
West Ham United have failed to win in five matches after losing 2-3 at home to Aston Villa last weekend, with poor formâsecuring only 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses in their last 10 matches. Currently ranking 18th with 13 points, they are just in the relegation zone, 3 points away from the safety zone. Since Nuno EspÃrito Santo took charge, the team has shown signs of recovery, but only possesses certain counter-attacking capabilities against mid-table teamsâsuch as defeating Newcastle United and drawing with Manchester United earlier this season, which are among their few bright spots.
