Recent stats:
- London City have taken a step backwards in the second half of the season under Eder Maestre, who took over in January 2026.
- The Lionesses will set up in a 4-4-2 medium block, but will also press in certain situations, and their midfielders will often arrive late into the box in numbers, making them difficult to deal with on their day.
Head-to-Head
- The two teams have no history of drawing in their two previous meetings.
- The last time these sides met was in the Super League Women 2024/2025 where London City edged out West Ham United Women 1-0 at home five months ago.
- The clubs have seen contrasting fortunes since then with London City getting worse and West Ham marginally better.
Key Players
-
Key players:
- Freya Godfrey has hit four goals in 14 league games this season and will be the focal point for the Lionesses attack against West Ham.
- Shekiera Martinez leads the way with six in 18 Super League Women appearances for the Hammers and they will need her to have a good game on Sunday.
Betting Insights
- West Ham have won just two of nine home Super League Women games this term.
- London City have lost five of nine on the road.
- The visitors have shown more grit in their recent away defeats than the hosts have in their home victories.
- We think both defences will be tested and over 2.5 goals at 1.7 will come in.
Prediction
The odds for an away bet on this game look a little rich to us at 2.14 , as there’s not much to separate the teams on paper, but we are taking them because we feel that London City will edge out a win.
