West Ham preview: In the fight under the lights
Nuno Espirito Santo, almost out of nowhere, has discovered some form in charge of West Ham United as they begin the match day now sitting just behind Nottingham Forest on goal difference and a point behind Tottenham Hotspur.
The Hammers’ penalty shootout victory over Brentford in the fifth round of the FA Cup last weekend means that they have now suffered just two defeats in their last 11 matches across all competitions.
Man City preview: Stumbling City
Manchester City dropped points against Nottingham Forest about ten days or so ago, leaving Arsenal now seven points clear at the top-of-the-table in the Premier League before then having to come from behind to beat Newcastle United in the FA Cup.
In the first-leg of their UEFA Champions League round of 16 contest against a struggling Real Madrid side at the Bernabeu in midweek, a first-half Fede Valverde hat-trick gave Los Blancos a 3-0 victory in the Spanish capital city.

West Ham vs Man City prediction
Ever since their lowest moment, a 2-1 loss to Nottingham Forest in early January, West Ham have been resurgent and now look likelier to stay up than the likes of Forest and even Spurs, while Leeds United aren’t too far away either. City will believe the tie against Madrid remains alive and they have to prioritise that to an extent and that should leave them even more fallible than they often have been this season in a potentially fun watch for the neutral in London.
