***City v Fulham Official Match Thread***
Another Saturday 3pm KO. Shame no fans can be there.
We have an excellent record v Fulham of late and should win. Lawro has even gone for 4-0, the only time I can ever recall he has tipped a side to score four
Manchester City have won their past nine games against Fulham in all competitions by an aggregate score of 27-3.
Fulham are on a 15-match winless run against City in league and cup (D3, L12).
The Whites have gone seven hours and 51 minutes without a goal against City in all competitions.
The sides met in the FA Cup fourth round at Etihad Stadium in January, with City winning 4-0.
Manchester City
Manchester City's tally of 15 points after nine fixtures is their lowest since 2008-09, when they had 13.
They are looking to win successive league games for the first time since a six-match sequence between July and September.
The five goals they scored against Burnley last weekend was as many as in their previous six league fixtures.
City are unbeaten in their last 39 Premier League home games against promoted opposition (W35, D4).
Riyad Mahrez, with four league goals, is the only player to score more than twice in the top flight for City this term.

Let’s turn on the screws and hit the ground running and use the Burnley result as a confidence booster to get our PL campaign back on track
3-1
Sterling to score first
