The defending champions kick off their campaign with a tough trip to the London stadium.
Pep Guardiola’s side have had a busy transfer window as they aim to win their third title in a row and their fifth in six years.
The Manchester side have completed the signing of Borussia Dortmund wonderkid Erling Haaland up front to strengthen their frontline, as well as the signing of England midfielder Kalvin Phillips from Leeds.
However, this summer has seen plenty of first-time players leave the team, with Raheem Sterling joining Chelsea and Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko both signing for Arsenal, as well as Fernandinho returning to Brazil.
City are currently favorites with Betfair to retain their league title this season, and are 4/11 favorites to start their season with three points on Sunday.
West Ham come into the opener as heavy underdogs but have a decent home record against Guardiola’s side in recent seasons.
The last three meetings at the London Stadium have ended in draws, twice in the league and once in the EFL Cup last season which the Hammers ended up winning on penalties.
David Moyes also had a busy window in East London and finally signed a striker he’s been looking for for several transfer windows now.
Gianluca Scamacca has signed from Sassuolo for £32million to provide competition for Michail Antonio, with the Hammers trying to maintain their top seven finish they have secured over the past two seasons.
Moyes’ men are priced at 7/1 to secure victory and a draw is priced at 4/1.
