This weekend, the Premier League serves up an enticing clash as Manchester City travel to Fulham’s Craven Cottage. The game, poised for a 12:30 PM kick-off on Saturday, 11 May 2024, promises to be more than just a routine matchup. With the season winding down, City have much to play for. Manchester City, after their emphatic 5-1 triumph over Wolves, are on the brink of securing an unprecedented fourth consecutive league title. Just three more victories would seal their fate at the top. However, the competition remains stiff with Arsenal hot on their heels, making every match a must-win scenario for Pep Guardiola’s squad.
For fans unable to attend the game at the London venue, the match will be aired on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports Ultimate, with coverage beginning an hour and a half before kick-off.
On the Fulham side, there are no new injury worries. Harrison Reed could make a welcome return to the squad after sitting out the previous game. Manchester City, meanwhile, welcome back goalkeeper Ederson after a recent injury scare. Key player Erling Haaland, fresh from scoring four goals against Wolves, will be one to watch as he looks to continue his stellar form.
Fulham, known for their resilience at home, especially against the league’s top teams, will aim to disrupt City’s title march. Nevertheless, Manchester City’s current form and the stakes involved at this crucial stage of the season suggest they might have the upper hand. I predict a 2-0 for Man City with Fulham not having a lot to play for, and for Man City nothing but a win will do.
