Training Gallery: Manchester City prepare for West Ham Premier League clash

Manchester City and Pep Guardiola have been preparing for Saturday’s visit to West Ham at the London Stadium.

The Sky Blues, who discovered their eight opponents for the league-phase of the reformed UEFA Champions League on Thursday evening, continue their Premier League campaign with a visit to east London on Saturday.

Manchester City have won their opening two matches of the new Premier League campaign, and this weekend’s clash against the Hammers is the Blues’ third and final fixture before the September international break.

Saturday’s fixture will be Pep Guardiola’s third visit to the capital of the campaign, with Manchester City having already recorded wins over both Manchester United and Chelsea this month.

The Cityzens also secured a thumping comeback win over Ipswich Town at the Etihad Stadium last weekend, beating Kieran McKenna’s side 4-1, courtesy of an Erling Haaland hat-trick and Kevin De Bruyne strike.

Haaland recorded his 10th Manchester City hat-trick last Saturday, and also moved to within six goals of the century mark for the Sky Blues, having scored an incredible 94 goals in 101 appearances.

The Norwegian has been training alongside his Manchester City teammates ahead of Saturday’s visit to the London Stadium, with Haaland’s first goal for Guardiola’s side having come against West Ham in August 2022.

Manchester City are unbeaten in their previous 19 matches against the Hammers, and also remain unbeaten in the Premier League since December.

As preparations for Saturday evening’s clash take place, here is a comprehensive look at the routines undertaken by some of Guardiola’s squad at the City Football Academy.
