Top predictions for Manchester City vs. West Ham

Green is leaning under 3.5 goals in Saturday's showdown between Manchester City and West Ham. The Cityzens have been stingy during their unbeaten streak, allowing fewer than two goals in all 26 matches. Manchester City has posted 19 clean sheets during the run, including its victory over Monchengladbach in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 on Wednesday. The loss to Tottenham marks the only time since a 5-2 setback against Leicester City on Sept. 27 the side has yielded more than one goal, a span of 36 matches.

One game in that stretch was on the road against West Ham, which battled Manchester City to a 1-1 draw on Oct. 24. Michail Antonio scored for the Hammers in that contest but has been held without a goal in eight of the 11 matches since. Tomas Soucek leads West Ham with eight Premier League goals but has scored just once in his last six overall games, which is one of the reasons Green is leaning toward the under on Saturday.
