West Ham host Manchester City in one of the most exciting games of the Carabao Cup R16 on Wednesday evening in London.
Both outfits will enter the tie on a high following their respective wins over Tottenham and Brighton at the weekend.
Of course, the Citizens do come into the match as clear favorites given they have won this competition every year since the 2017/18 season.
Man City’s latest Carabao Cup success came in April this year when they saw off Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 in the final.
Pep Guardiola’s machinery seems to have found the right chemistry in the final third of late.
Manchester City bagged nine goals in the back-to-back wins over Club Brugge and Brighton within the last eight days.
However, we must say that West Ham did improve their defensive showings of late. The Hammers kept three subsequent clean sheets in the consecutive victories over Everton, Genk, and Tottenham Hotspur.

周三晚上，西汉姆将在伦敦举行最激动人心的卡拉宝杯R16决赛之一，对阵曼城。
这两支球队都将在周末分别战胜热刺和布莱顿后进入比赛的高潮。
当然，市民队是最受欢迎的球队，因为他们自2017/18赛季以来每年都赢得比赛。
曼城最近一次赢得卡拉堡杯是在今年4月，当时他们在决赛中1-0击败了托特纳姆热刺队。
瓜迪奥拉的机器似乎在最后三分之一找到了正确的化学反应。
在过去的八天里，曼城在背靠背战胜布鲁日俱乐部和布莱顿俱乐部的比赛中进了9个球。
然而，我们必须说西汉姆最近确实改善了他们的防守表现。在接连战胜埃弗顿、根克和托特纳姆热刺的比赛中，铁锤队连续三场没有失球。
