Manchester City vs Fulham Prediction: 5/10/2024

Fulham enters this match with lackluster recent form in the Premier League, having secured only two points from the last 21 available. In contrast, Manchester City has been on a hot streak, staying undefeated for 12 games in the Süper Lig and securing victories in four of their last five home games.

Fulham, having lost the first leg of this matchup, finds themselves in a position where they need to aggressively pursue goals. Historically, this strategy has yielded results, as 11 of their last 13 away games in the second tier have seen at least two goals scored. Manchester City’s recent home games suggest a high-scoring affair as well, with 16 out of their last 20 matches witnessing more than 2.5 goals.

So far this season, Manchester City’s home games have consistently featured goals from both teams, including a draw with Fulham. The visitors, too, have frequently both scored and conceded goals in their last five away matches.

 

Prediction

Fulham’s road performance has been underwhelming, with only two points collected from the last 24 available and they have struggled to score more than one goal in their last 14 top-flight away games. Manchester City, in contrast, has been dominant at home, winning six of their last seven league games and achieving a significant goal difference in these matches.

Prediction: Manchester City 2 : 1 Fulham
