Football Predictions
Manchester are looking to make it four wins in as many games when they host Fulham on Saturday afternoon at the Etihad.
Wins against Burnley, Newcastle United and Sheffield United has proven that City are not ready to let their title go on easily and even without manager Pep Guardiola who is still recovering from a minor surgery, they will be confident of getting something in the Fulham game.
But Fulham are no pushovers too as they proved last weekend against Arsenal where they held the Mikel Arteta side to a 2-2 draw despite finishing the game with a man less. This is another game that they feel they can get something going by how City have scrapped wins in their first three games.

Team News
Man City will still be without midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, John Stones and Akanji due to injury concerns. For Fulham, Willian is unlikely to feature this weekend and defender Bassey is suspended following his sending-off against Arsenal last time out.
Probable Line-Ups
Man City XI: Ederson (GK), Walker, Aké, Dias, Gvardiol, Kovačić, Grealish, Silva, Rodri, Haaland & Álvarez
Fulham XI: Leno (GK), Tete, Diop, Robinson, Adarabioyo, Lukić, Pereira, Palhinha, Wilson, De Cordova-Reid & Jiménez
Verdict
From the recent meetings, Man City enter this game as the clear favourites but coach Marco Silva cant be underrated going by how he parades his teams. He is an underdog in this fixture and this might work in his favour as he doesn’t have pressure. His output against Arsenal should give him the confidence that they match City.
