- Fulham is predicted to be a +0.5-goal home underdog against Man City.
- Fulham has lost each of its last five EPL matches following a league win.
- My Fulham vs. Man City prediction is Fulham to score in the first half.
After a thrilling 3-2 win at Brentford, Fulham returns home for a clash with Manchester City.
For Fulham, the road to a European competition remains long. Currently 10th, Fulham needs to finish eighth and have Chelsea finish seventh while winning the Conference League title.
Manchester City remains in the race for a Champions League spot. Two wins on Tuesday against Bournemouth and Sunday at Fulham would earn City a top-five spot.
Check out the Premier League odds and my Fulham vs. Man City prediction.

Man City vs Fulham: Prediction
Based on Fulham’s strong offensive record as an underdog and their previous record against City, my Fulham vs Man City prediction is Fulham 1H Over 0.5 (+130).
Fulham own a rest advantage over City after playing Sunday at Brentford, whereas City plays Tuesday at home.
That should offer a chance for Fulham to produce a strong start, like they did at the Etihad in the reverse fixture.
Marco Silva’s side jumped out to a 1-0 lead after 26 minutes while generating 1.65 expected goals in the first 45 minutes, per fotmob.com.
For the entire match, Fulham created 2.6 expected goals and 2.5 post-shot xG at City. That marks twice in the last three against City they surpassed 1.9 post-shot xG.
In eight home matches against top-half sides this season, Fulham managed a first-half tally in seven. Also worth noting is that they scored the first goal in six of those eight.
That includes successes against both Arsenal and Liverpool, the only sides ahead of Man City in defensive post-shot xG.
Sample nine games against teams fifth or better in post-shot xGA this season, and bettors will find Fulham scored a first-half goal six times.
Worth noting in those contests: Fulham have managed at least one goal in all nine.
As a result, I’ll take the plus money on Fulham to continue their first-half success.
