Fulham host Manchester City at Craven Cottage on Sunday in what could prove to be a game-changing Premier League game for both teams. Fulham are still hoping to finish in the top seven and qualify for the Europa League, while City are looking to top the table and clinch the title.
Fulham have shown an upturn in form under Marco Silva, who took them up to 10th on 45 points. They have scored 44 goals and conceded only 43, showing a balance between attack and defence. However, they are still nine points behind fifth-placed Aston Villa, and have just six games left to make up for that loss.
Fulham will have to play smarter and not harder if they are to beat City, who are the best team in the league right now. Fulham are winless in their last 15 Premier League games against City, and have conceded 39 goals while scoring just 11. Fulham are also winless in their last ten home matches against City.
City are in top form, having won seven in a row in the Premier League, including a 4-1 win over Arsenal last Thursday which saw them move up to second with 73 points. They are just two points behind leaders Arsenal but have a game in hand. City have also shown their dominance scoring two or more goals in six of those seven wins.
Man City are not only chasing the Premier League title, but also a treble, with the FA Cup final and UEFA Champions League semi-finals awaiting them. Pep Guardiola knows that history is being made one game at a time, but he must not ignore the challenge Fulham face to stop their potentially record-breaking run.
Players to watch in this clash are Fulham’s Andreas Pereira and City’s Erling Haaland. Pereira has scored the opener of six of his last eight goals, including one from the penalty spot in a 2-1 defeat at the Etihad Stadium last November.
Erling Haaland has been City’s most prolific player, scoring 33 league goals this season, more than any other player in the league. The Norwegian national team player has also broken the record for most PL goals in 38 matches.
This game will be a David vs Goliath battle at Craven Cottage, with Fulham looking to beat the raging City giants. Can Fulham surprise and ruin City’s plans? Or will City be too strong and tough for Fulham? Watch this exciting game on Sunday on Soccer Channel.
