Manchester City, Recent FormManchester City head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 1-0 away win against Leicester City in their last league encounter. In that game they had 65% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Leicester City who had 10 attempts and 5 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal for them with 17 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Pep Guardiola will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 5 goals in the same period. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 20 games in a row. With 6 clean sheets so far this season, they have one of the best shut out records in the league.
They are showing impressive form at home with a run of 10 straight wins in a row and added to that are unbeaten at The Etihad Stadium in 12 league games.
On an individual basis, Erling Haaland is giving The Etihad Stadium faithful plenty to shout about at the moment having scored 12 goals in Manchester City's last 6 home games in the league.
Fulham, Recent FormFulham had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 0-0 draw against Everton. Their share of possession in that meeting was 57%, while racking up 24 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target, in contrast to the numbers reached by Everton, who had 9 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Manager Marco Silva will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 10 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 11 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
On an individual basis, Aleksandar Mitrović will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 9 goals in Fulham's 13 league games this season.
A defeat for Fulham in their last match against Manchester City was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
Man City will be looking to extend their current run of 5 clean sheets against The Cottagers at The Etihad Stadium. Goals should be on the cards for Man City in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against The Cottagers in their last 24 meetings together. We have seen plenty of goals from The Citizens when they play at home against Fulham. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 10 goals, which is an average of 3.33 goals per game.
Man City have dominated this fixture in the past, winning the last 9 times in a row when they have played Fulham in the league.
Man City manager Pep Guardiola has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Erling Haaland (Foot), Kalvin Phillips (Shoulder) and Kyle Walker (Abdominal) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Layvin Kurzawa (Knock) and Manor Solomon (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Marco Silva will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
