Manchester City coach Josep Guardiola is confident that the home match against West Ham will not be an easy walk for his team.
Next Sunday, City will win their fourth Premier League title in a row if they defeat West Ham.
West Ham are no longer claiming anything, can boast of only one victory in their last seven matches and, in addition, are parting ways with their head coach, Davi Moyes.
However, Guardiola expects this match to be as intense as the confrontation with Aston Villa two years ago, when the “citizens” played back a two-goal deficit and, snatching a 3-2 victory, won the title at the very finish.
“I have a feeling that it will be Aston Villa again. We would like to lead 3-0 10 minutes after the start, but that’s not going to happen.”
“In the last three or four days, I have watched enough matches that West Ham have played in the previous months and weeks.”
“They have a few things that we need to control, otherwise it will be difficult. However, we have two more days to prepare for this final match, and we will be ready,” Guardiola was quoted as saying by Sky Sports.
