Manchester City will complete their disappointing season with an away match at Fulham this Sunday. Heading into the game, City are third and still battling for a Champions League slot, while Fulham is 10th in the standings. We have a prediction for this match below.
Hosts Fulham have fallen off the chase for a place in Europe and can’t do much about it with one game remaining. They had an impressive comeback last time out, beating Brentford 3-2, and will be hoping for a similar fighting spirit here.
However, the hosts haven't done so well against City in previous encounters, and it won’t help that they’ve lost three of four matches at home.
Manchester City overcame their disappointments in the FA Cup with a deserved win in the league, beating Bournemouth 3-1. This has been a shaky campaign for City, who will go trophyless for the first time since Pep Guardiola took over.
The former champions are set to finish third before heading out to the Club World Cup. A run of nine league matches unbeaten represents calmer times at City, and they will be looking to add to their six wins in that run.
Manchester City have won each of the last 17 games against Fulham.
Manchester City are enduring a tough season, set to finish third, which is considered very low by their standards. The former champions returned to winning ways in the league, beating Bournemouth after their loss in the FA Cup final at the hands of Crystal Palace.
City’s record in this fixture isn’t too shady, having avoided defeat in the last 17 meetings. They should be finishing strongly, and our prediction for Fulham v Manchester City is for Manchester City to win.
