Manchester City needed a stoppage-time winner to scrape past Leeds United over the weekend and while the 3-2 victory stabilised them after back-to-back defeats, it showed how far from their best Pep Guardiola’s side currently are.

With Arsenal leading the way, City know that a win on Tuesday night at Craven Cottage would trim the gap to just two points before Mikel Arteta’s side host Brentford later in the week. 

Fulham, meanwhile, have quietly gathered momentum of their own, and return home after a statement 2-1 win against Tottenham that stretched their run to three victories in four matches.

Both teams to score 

Fulham come into this on the back of two straight home wins to nil, but facing City is a different proposition altogether. 

Pep Guardiola’s side have scored in all 17 Premier League visits to Craven Cottage, the most any away team has scored at a single opponent without ever being kept out. 

City themselves have been far from watertight, conceding four goals across their last two league matches and looking particularly vulnerable in transition. With Marco Silva’s side averaging nearly two goals per home match in recent weeks and City capable of scoring against anyone, BTTS at 33/50 looks a strong bet.

Tip: Both teams to score @ 33/50 

Bet explanation: This bet wins if Fulham and Manchester City score at least one goal each.

Over 1.5 total goals 

Six of City’s last seven matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Even when City struggle, their games rarely stay low-scoring with the Leeds thriller being a perfect example.

Historically, this matchup also leans heavily toward goals as City have scored 2+ goals in six of their last seven Tuesday away games, and Fulham’s last seven matches at Craven Cottage have featured long spells of end-to-end play. 

With both sides in attacking rhythm and City still shaky defensively without Rodri, over 1.5 bet at 1/5 feels safe.

Tip: Over 1.5 total goals @ 1/5 

Bet explanation: This bet wins if there are at least two goals scored in the game between Fulham and Manchester City.

Erling Haaland to score anytime 

Yes, Erling Haaland has failed to score in his last three games for Manchester City which is surprising but he has scored six goals in six Premier League games against Fulham, making them statistically his favourite opponent. 

Fulham have never kept a clean sheet in 17 Premier League home games vs Manchester City, and goalkeeper Bernd Leno has lost all 12 Premier League matches he has played against the champions, conceding 34 goals in the process. 

City may not be at their sharpest, but Haaland at 33/50 remains one of the most reliable goal-scorer picks and he is also eyeing a record-breaking 100th Premier League goal.

Tip: Erling Haaland to score anytime @ 33/50 

Bet explanation: This bet wins if Erling Haaland scores against Fulham.
