Fulham vs Man City Tips

Tip 1

Manchester City only need a point to secure a place in next season’s Champions League at Craven Cottage on Sunday, but the Citizens have won only seven of their last 22 away matches and Pep Guardiola’s may struggle to get anything more than a draw.

Fulham are pushing for a top-half finish and the Cottagers have held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw and beaten Liverpool 3-2 on home turf this season.

Tip 2

There have been 25 goals in Fulham’s last eight Premier League matches and both teams have scored in six of those matches.

The two teams were involved in a ding-dong 3-2 battle at the Etihad and another closely-fought encounter is anticipated. Backing a 1-1 draw on the correct score market could pay dividends at a nice price.
