The first leg is at the Eithad and Manchester City have been exceptional at home all season conceding only 12 goals and scoring 53. Out of 14 home games they have won 13 with the solitary defeat being against the European Champions Bayern Munich.

If Man City's home record didn't make things tough enough for West Ham they also have to contend with injuries to all their first choice centre backs. So bad is the injury crisis that against Nottingham Forest they played a back three of full back Callum Driver, full back Daniel Potts and midfielder Alou Diarra. However, West Ham have signed Roger Johnson on loan from League One Wolves and could put him straight into the side at centre half.

Most likely, the Hammers will look to keep things tight and play for the second leg but it is hard to recommend anything other than a Man City win for our football betting tips today. For the die hard West Ham fan a clean sheet for the away team is 33/4 at youwin. Maybe West Ham will pull off a backs to the wall defensive action. Crystal Palace almost did so recently the Eithad and Man City only scored once away at Blackburn last weekend.

With City's exceptional home record you would back them to score goals without conceding against a West Ham side that has been struggling to score all season with striker Andy Carroll injured. That is why our tip of the day is for Man City to win by three or more goals which is at 11/10 on Winner.

If you’re feeling adventurous Man City to win 3-0 is 13/2 at Coral a £10 stake would net £75.
