Next week there are two matches that I think we should not miss. Namely the West Ham vs Man City match and the Man Utd vs Brighton match. And between these two matches, I am very curious about the results of the West Ham vs Man City match. Because these two clubs have not experienced defeat at the start of this season. I would not be surprised if Man City is unbeaten so far. But I was very surprised because West Ham were also unbeaten at the start of this season. I don't know how, but I hope there will be a surprise from West Ham in this match. If this were a match last season then of course West Ham would not be able to do much in the match against Man City. But I hope things are different this time.
West Ham have had a pretty good start to the season. They have quite an impressive performance and they have not even been defeated so far. However, this will be a tough fight for them because their opponent is Man City, which in my opinion has a slightly better performance than West Ham (Man City always wins in every match they have played, and they have quite high goal productivity so far). Playing as hosts is certainly an advantage for West Ham but that doesn't guarantee that they can offset the opponent's game throughout the match.
The draw target is probably something they do in this match, considering their opponents are Manchester City who will be very difficult to beat even though they play at home. I know every club must want to get maximum results, but they also have to see who the opponents they will face are. West Ham did play well at the start of this competition, but the opponents they faced were arguably better as you said. So a draw might be a good result although a win would be even better. But with all the considerations they have to think about it too.
