Kick-off 3pm Saturday

Manchester City have showed few signs of weakness this season and can march on with a victory over West Brom at the Hawthorns.

Albion will set up to defend but it is nigh on impossible to keep a team of Man City's quality quiet for 90 minutes.

Wolves did it for 120 minutes against an understrength City in the League Cup but Albion will have it tougher with David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne returning to the fray.

West Brom are a threat from set-pieces and may grab a consolation goal.

Recommendation
Manchester City to win & both teams to score
1pt 19-10 general
