Manchester City Team News

Almost everything has been said about Manchester City’s previous season. They won the “Triple” title, which is the most tremendous success in the club’s history, especially if we add that one of those trophies is the Champions League cup, which the fans of this club have been waiting for a long time.

At the very start of this season, City had the opportunity to win two more trophies, as they played the European Super Cup final against Sevilla and the FA Community Shield final against Arsenal. The performance of the “Citizens” was half-hearted: they defeated Sevilla on penalties, while they lost to Arsenal also after penalty kicks.

Manchester started the new Premier League championship in the best possible way, defeating Burnley, Newcastle, and Sheffield Utd. However, one gets the impression that many players still need to be in the proper form. This primarily refers to Erling Haaland, the best scorer of the home team, and there is no doubt that the match with Fulham is an opportunity to see the Norwegian representative in one of the editions from the previous season.

Fulham Team News

After three rounds played, Fulham is in the middle of the table, more precisely, in 12th place, with four points won and a total goal difference of 3:5.

After variable results in the pre-season, the visitors started the season with a win against Everton away from home, to the surprise of many. Although the hosts created the chances, Fulham’s goalkeeper, Leno, was phenomenal and, along with the goalscorer, De Cordova-Reid, is the most responsible for this triumph. However, Brentford defeated them at home at 0:3 in the second match, and it was believed that for the rest of the season, they would have big problems in the offense, considering that Aleksandar Mitrovic left the club.

The Fulham players denied those claims already in the next round when they managed to surprise Arsenal and play 2:2, with goals from Pereira and Palhinha. These two players are the wish of many European clubs at the end of the transfer window, and the management will do their best to keep them in the club.

If we add to these results the triumph over Tottenham, after a penalty shootout in the round of 32 of the EFL Cup, it is clear that Manchester City must take Fulham as seriously as possible if they want to win three points on Saturday.

Manchester City vs Fulham H2H

As expected, Manchester City have won all nine H2H matches between these rivals since Fulham’s return to the Premier League. Interestingly, City scored at least two goals in each of those matches.

Injuries and suspensions

Manchester City: De Bruyne, Stones (injuries)

Fulham: Benda, Willian (questionable, injury), Bassey (red card)

Manchester City vs Fulham Prediction

Quality and form are certainly on Manchester City’s side, and there is no doubt that they are big favorites in this match. Although guests surprised Arsenal in the previous round and won a point, we believe that City’s approach will be drastically more severe and that we will see a routine home-team triumph against Fulham on Saturday.

Kick-off Time: Saturday, 02.09.2023 3:00 PM Local time GMT / 16:00 CET

Prediction: HT-FT Manchester City-Manchester City & Over 1.5 goals
