Indeed, the hosts are priced at just 1\/10 (1.10) with bet365 to pick up three points and that is no surprise considering their last five victories against Fulham have come without conceding a goal.<\/p>\n
The capital club have won just two of their last 26 away games in the top-flight and they are offered at 16\/1 (17.0) to pull off a major shock, with the draw available at 9\/1 (10.0). <\/p>\n

Manchester City vs Fulham Preview<\/p>\n
City have only failed to score at home twice in their last 64 Premier League home matches, with Wolves the last side to keep a clean sheet at the Etihad Stadium back in October 2019.<\/p>\n
The hosts will be full of confidence after enjoying a 5-0 win against Burnley at home last weekend and while big victories have been rare this season, they will view this game as a chance to continue with that goalscoring momentum.<\/p>\n
Given that they have already wrapped up qualification from their Champions League group, there will be no need for Guardiola to rest players ahead of Wednesday’s clash with Marseille and full focus will rest upon the visit of Fulham, who have the worst defence in the league with 19 goals against.<\/p>\n
As well, the Cottagers have only managed one clean sheet all term and are unlikely to be able to keep out the hosts this weekend. <\/p>\n
