Man City XI vs Fulham: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Premier League | OneFootball

Close

Manchester City appear as if they have a clean bill of health heading into Saturday’s Premier League trip to Fulham.

Three points at Craven Cottage would take Pep Guardiola’s side above Arsenal in the table, albeit the Gunners have the chance to respond when they travel to Manchester United on Sunday.

Still, with the champions boasting a game in hand over their title rivals, a victory in west London would mean they are just two wins away from an unprecedented fourth consecutive English title.

Pep Guardiola is not believed to be dealing with any injury concerns at this stage but will provide a further update at Friday’s pre-match press conference.

First-choice goalkeeper Ederson recovered from a recent knock to play in the big victory over Wolves last weekend in which star striker Erling Haaland scored four times.

Haaland then reacted angrily to be being substituted while chasing a fifth, though Guardiola has since played that down.

The City boss suggested that referee Craig Pawson was in fact the subject of Haaland’s anger.

“There were a lot of long balls into the channels where he won the position and was being pulled by the opponent and it was never [given as] a foul,” he said.

“When he's level with the shoulders I can understand but sometimes he won the position and was being pulled.

“He went down and sometimes it was no foul. It happens every game a lot of times. He was just a bit frustrated for these actions but I can guarantee how happy he was today.”

Man City predicted XI: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Stones, Gvardiol; Rodri, Kovacic; Foden, De Bruyne, Grealish, Haaland
