The pilot won't know if it's an east or west approach until on final approach. It depends on wind direction - which can change during the day. You can make an educated guess of what the likely wind direction will be when you do OLCI - based on forecast - but because of localised "on-shore" wind effect the runway usage can and does change frequently on some days at LCY.
