82% - 18 of Jarrod Bowen’s 22 Premier League goals for West Ham have come in home games (82%) – of all players to have scored at least 20 times in the competition, only Georginio Wijnaldum (85%) and Michael Carrick (83%) have scored a higher share in home games. Tendency.

Manchester City vs Manchester United
A new lease of life will be injected into the Manchester derby as Manchester City are ready to take on a rejuvenated Manchester United which could well emerge as the game on a weekend that has also featured the North London Derby.
Manchester City have dominated the fixture lately, but Manchester United’s recent revival under Erik ten Hag has spiced up things a bit. The Red Devils shrugged off their initial difficulties with four back-to-back wins, including two excellent outings against Liverpool and Arsenal. So the recent monopoly in the derby should finally be challenged by the visitors.
Manchester City thrashed Wolves 3-0 to flex their muscles before this crucial clash, and Erling Haaland’s explosive form will leave them as the favourites. The Norwegian striker already has 11 goals and is way ahead in the Golden Boot race. So the Manchester United defender will have a tough time dealing with Haaland, who will be adamant to add to his already booming tally.
