Manchester City will reclaim their spot at the top of the Premier League on Saturday afternoon should they defeat Fulham at Craven Cottage.

At the moment, City are in second, one point adrift of Arsenal, but they play before the Gunners this weekend so could leapfrog them into first, albeit potentially temporarily.

Current Form

Fulham's current form

It seems Fulham have been on the beach for a while now as after their Premier League status was secured and European football became out of reach, their form has taken a nosedive.

They have won just one out of their last seven games in the league which came against West Ham.

Their last two matches have been draws at home to Crystal Palace and away at Brentford.

Man City's current form

While Liverpool dropped out of the title race and Arsenal hit a blip with a loss against Aston Villa, Man City have been relentless in their pursuit of another title under Pep Guardiola.

They have won six Premier League games in a row and in that time have scored no less than 24 goals.

Last time out they beat Wolves 5-1, with Erling Haaland scoring four.

Fulham vs Man City Team News

The only injury issue Fulham have had recently surrounds Harrison Reed, but Marco Silva revealed this week that he has been training and could be in contention to feature on Saturday.

Guardiola, meanwhile, has a clean bill of health for his City squad.

With no Champions League to worry about, expect the Spaniard to play his strongest team including the likes of Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne.

Key player - Fulham

Joao Palhinha has been one of the most impressive defensive midfielders in the league this season and his contributions will be vital in halting attacking coming through the middle.
