Embattled Manchester City will be welcoming a relegation Zone Westham to the Etihad on Wednesday, as they continue to battle the painful wave that have hit them in recent times. With Liverpool having put the English Premier league trophy beyond their reach this season, the Citizens are just playing with little or no motivation. The recent ban slammed on City by UEFA and the heightened possibility of Pep Guardiola leaving the Etihad in no distant time have been a thing of worry to not only the Club stakeholders, but has even distracted the squad a great deal. Liverpool are currently 25 points ahead of City after the reds played their 26th game against Norwish which ended in a 1-0 victory, thanks to Sadio Mane's lone strike.
Manchester City who are currently sitting second with 51 points will look forward to reducing that tally by unleashing their anger on Westham when they go visiting the Etihad. So far so good, the Citizens have played 25 games, recorded 16 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats. However, Manchester City may not be playing to fulfill all righteousness as many of us are thinking. Pep Guardiola's side have got something to keep them salivating for morale as far as this season is still concerned. They have got a big Champions league round of 16 fixture coming up next week against an experienced Zidane led Real Madrid side. In fact, the worst thing that can possibly happen to Manchester City now is to portray a sign of unreadiness ahead of that clash with Los Blancos. For this reason, they will leave no stone unturned in slaughtering Westham to send a message of their dreadfulness to Madrid. I see an harvest of goals in tomorrow's game, and Westham will be considered lucky to concede less than 5 goals.
