26'
THE PRESSURE CONTINUES VIA LONG-RANGE SHOTS
Foden and then Akanji unleash decent efforts from distance that is repelled by Areola before De Bruyne sees an effort tipped wide by the West Ham keeper, who is having a very fine match.
24'
HOW DID THAT STAY OUT FOR CITY?
Silva with a lovely ball over to Gvardiol, but his flick across the goal somehow stays out as Haaland attempted to tap home a volley. Just couldn't get the connection. Hammers somehow stay only two behind. For the moment.
22'
FRANTIC DEFENDING BY HAMMERS
Konstantinos Mavropanos doing extremely well to get a touch on the ball as Haaland prepared to pull the trigger. Than Doku sees a shot deflect wide. The one-way traffic continues. Phew!
20'
WEST HAM HAVE ALREADY HAD THEIR PHIL
They look a beaten lot, and this could be a sore and sobering outcome for the visitors today. They are being pounded by the Premier League champions, who have 83% of possession.

GOAL! (FODEN) MANCHESTER CITY 2-0 WEST HAM
Surely the title party can begin now as Foden pops up again to add the second. Doku with a lovely pass and Foden passes the ball into the net from 14 yards with his left foot. A superb finish. Didn't hit at it. Strokes it. A 2-0 lead. Game, set and match surely.

GOLDEN CHANCE FOR RODRI!
Accepts the pass from De Bruyne and is within 12 yards of the visiting goal, but he drags the shot a few yards wide with the outside of his right boot. Should really by two ahead by now.
16'
DOKU IN THE MOOD FOR CITY
Some more excellent play by Pep's side as this time Doku dances into the West Ham box before cracking a shot at goal that is tipped over the bar by Areola, who then blocks another attempt on the other wing from Doku. City swarming all over the Hammers.
14'
EMERSON TRYING TO UNLOCK CITY DOOR
Looked like he was making decent progress there in the home half, but City are quickly back to snuff out the danger before Haaland is taken out late by Zouma. Moyes looking for a reaction from his side.
12'
ARSENAL WITH IT ALL TO DO
They can't really do much unless CIty drop off it with Foden netting his 18th goal of the season in the Premier League. Some hit with his left foot. Poetry in motion. No chance for the West Ham keeper. Still Arsenal 0-0 Everton.
10'
FODEN PROVING WHY HE'S PREMIER LEAGUE PLAYER OF YEAR
Such a slick and quality footballer, but City are full of them and full of confidence so far today. Once again Areola does well to fist out the swirling free-kick from De Bruyne.
8'
DE BRUYNE GOES FOR GOAL
City so, so slick in possession. Working it from side to side before De Bruyne sees a shot blocked by Alphonse Areola in the visiting goal. City fans in full voice here after Foden scored his side's fastest goal of the season.
6'
WAVE AFTER WAVE OF CITY ATTACKS
That goal has really settled down the Citizens, who are pressing West Ham back. A throw-in for West Ham at the moment feels like a minor success story. City looking to put this to bed early doors.
4'
TALKING ABOUT SETTLING THE FINAL-DAY NERVES
If Pep tried to dream this start for his side, it would have been deemed far-fetched. Surely on course for the title now.

GOAL! (FODEN) MANCHESTER CITY 1-0 WEST HAM
A dream start for the champions as Foden thumps a finish high into the net from the Silva pass. What a finish from outside the box. Top left-hand corner.

WILL HAALAND CLAIM THE GOLDEN BOOT?
The City striker is set to emulate Harry Kane's feat between 2015-2017 by winning the Premier League's top scorer award for a second straight season. The Norway forward has 27 so far, five more than Cole Palmer of Chelsea. Would surely fancy him to net today judging by recent form.

WEST HAM OUT TO SPOIL CITY PARTY
“We've actually done quite well at Man City without getting results. We've actually been quite close in some of the games. I think we lost to a set piece maybe last year, thinking back," said outgoing Hammers manager David Moyes, who will bring down the curtain on his second spell in charge of the club after over four years at the helm. "So, we've actually put in some pretty good performances, but ultimately what you're judged on is wins and not saying you played quite well or our style was good, because when it comes down to it, it’s winning which absolutely matters.
“I think the Premier League, at different times, has shown incredible teams and incredible managers like José Mourinho, Sir Alex, Arsène Wenger, Jürgen Klopp and Pep, so it's been a pleasure working against them… sometimes!
"What you learn from them is that they want to win more than anything, and if you beat them or you draw with them, they're not happy. So those men are tough people to play against as well as being excellent coaches, so that's been good and I’ve enjoyed it.”

WILL IT BE A RED LETTER DAY FOR ARSENAL?
Arsenal icon Tony Adams is dressed for the occasion. Just in case. Arsenal fans are all West Ham fans today too. "I think it will two or 3-0," says Tony sporting a majestic red suit.

PEP'S CITY STAND ON VERGE OF HISTORY
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola spoke ahead of the final day of the Premier League season on Sunday. City know that a win will be enough to secure a historic fourth Premier League title in a row, but any other result could open the door for Arsenal to win a first league crown since 2004. And Pep believes the final yard could be the hardest to take.
