West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic: 'We have a chance against Manchester City'

Bilic: 'We have a chance against City'

West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has claimed that it would not be a "shock" if his team managed to pick up points against Manchester City this weekend.

Manuel Pellegrini's side have a 100% record in the Premier League so far having won all five of their games.

However, they head into Saturday's meeting on the back of a 2-1 defeat to Juventus in a Champions League group clash.

The Hammers have won three out of five domestic fixtures, including wins over Arsenal and Liverpool.

"It would be a surprise of course because before Juventus, Man City scored 11 goals and didn't concede - they are cruising, but to be fair, it would not be a shock considering we have done it two out of two already," The Express quotes Bilic as saying.

"It's good for us - we know what we have to do to have a chance. They are the favourites but I am expecting us to have a good game and if we have a good game we have a chance."

Last season, City beat the Hammers at home, but lost 2-1 at Upton Park.
