England was in action against Ukraine before playing Scotland in a midweek friendly, and it wasn’t the most exciting week for fans as the Three Lions blew hot and cold. Club football is back on our screens, and we preview the best action from the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A. This page concentrates on West Ham United’s home game in London with champions Manchester City. [banner][/banner] The Hammers have an interesting season ahead and hope to challenge for the major places after a year spent fighting against the drop. All eyes are on the Hammers this term after they won the Europa Conference League in the spring but failed to impact the EPL. Will David Moyes’ team back pushing for the major places, challenging for a European finish? How they perform against the champions will be a good indicator of what to expect.

Hammers unbeaten in four

West Ham fans may think the international break came at the wrong time for their team after they enjoyed an unbeaten start to the season. The Londoners opened with a draw and followed that share with three wins on the bounce. They’ve claimed ten of the dozen points available, and there’s more to come from Moyes’ European champions. There’s confidence in the ranks; they’ve strengthened over the summer, and the mood in the stands is optimistic. It’s an exciting time to follow West Ham. We last saw West Ham in action on the opening day of September when battling to a 2-1 away win over Luton Town. The bare result suggests it was a slog for the Hammers, but they enjoyed a 2-0 lead until The Hatters scored to half the deficit inside stoppage time with 92 minutes on the clock. Bowen had broken the deadlock for the team from East London, scoring on 37 minutes before Zouma added a second to wrap up the points on 85. It was another impressive showing from West Ham.

Champions lead the way

Manchester City won their third Premier League trophy on the bounce last year, kicking off a stunning treble. Pep Guardiola’s men claimed the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League trophies in a frantic end to the previous campaign. The cash-rich Cityzens have been dreaming of being kings of the continent and finally delivered the goods. They now have one eye on defending the trophy and winning back-to-back Champions League gongs, but how much will that distract them from their league ambitions? [news_button][/news_button] Man City has played four and won four, bagging a perfect dozen points while scoring 11 goals and conceding two. The visitors enjoyed a comfortable win over Fulham in the last round of games, smashing the Cottagers 5-1 at the Etihad Stadium. Haaland scored a hattrick in that game as he shook off any early season rust and got back to what he does best, scoring goals and winning his team points. It was a team effort, but there’s no denying who the main man is in the champions’ attack.

West Ham v Man City prediction

What a game we have in store here as West Ham United enjoys the home advantage over the champions, with both teams carrying unbeaten results. The Hammers are a danger to any opponent when backed by a home crowd at the London Stadium, and the support could prove the equaliser again here. This game will tell us what we can expect from West Ham. Man City hasn’t put a foot wrong all season, and the troubles of 12 months ago seem beyond them now. They’re back to the dangerous opponent they were just a few months ago in the EPL when catching Arsenal to win the league, and fans want to see more of the same this term. An away win would prove Pep’s boys are top for good reason.

Welcome to the first weekend of September, and the Premier League schedule gives football fans plenty to discuss. The top division of English football provides one game on Friday, six on Saturday, and another three on Sunday. The highlight of the programme is on Sunday when Arsenal host Man Utd from 16:30 GMT in a game you can follow live on television. The Gunners enjoy home advantage and aim to shoot down their big-name opponents to bolster their title challenge.

Man United have lacked consistency in the opening three weeks and are already playing catch up. The Red Devils know they must improve on recent efforts to bring back the glory days, but much work must be done. A win at the Emirates would move United back into contention, while a defeat would cause unrest in a following that’s already low on confidence. Keep reading as our team analyses the big game and offers our predictions.

Gunners find the target

It’s an important season for Arsenal after their near-miss last time. They pushed Man City hard for the title, leading for much of the campaign before surrendering to Man City in the closing weeks. Fans are intrigued to see how Mikel Arteta’s men perform this season. Can they go one better than last term and win the league, or was that close call little more than another flash in the pan from an underperforming club?

Arsenal enter this home game against Man United with seven points from a possible nine. They won their first two games but were held to a draw last time, dropping off the pace set by Man City, the only remaining team with a 100% win record. Their points tally is shared by four other teams, meaning a win on Sunday would drive Arsenal back into contention. They beat Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace before ending 2-2 with Fulham last time.

Man Utd under pressure

Manchester United is the away team on Sunday, but they finished lower in the pecking order than their opponents last season and are already three places lower in the league. United has also suffered its first defeat, with their stats showing two wins and a loss. It’s early in the season, and there’s plenty of football to play, but defeat in London would knock United down the list and seriously damage their chances of challenging for the title.

Man Utd played three games in August, starting with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford against Wolverhampton Wanderers, a team they were favourites to beat. It was a little closer than most expected, but a goal from Varane on 76 minutes was enough to secure the points. United then suffered a 2-0 defeat to Tottenham in North London before bouncing back to defeat Nottingham Forest 3-2 last time, battling back from two goals behind inside four minutes. It was a real test of character for United.

Arsenal v Man Utd prediction

The highlight of Sunday’s Premier League schedule will live up to the hype, and fans hope we’re treated to a few more goals. Which team will end on top, securing all three points and the bragging rights for fans? Fans in London will back the Gunners, and if they start better than last weekend, the crowd will get right behind the players in such an important fixture. 

If Man Utd are to get anything from this tussle, they can’t play like they did last Saturday, going two goals behind early in the contest. They fought back from 2-0 down to Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford, but if they handed Arsenal a two-goal lead on Sunday, things could get messy fast.

Premier League odds

The pre-match betting odds available at 22bet make for interesting reading with traders struggling to separate the big guns. Arsenal using their home advantage to claim victory is priced at 1.79, or you can back an away win for Man Utd in London at 4.08. The draw will net backers 3.98 if you can’t pick sides.
