Manchester City take on the visitors Fulham in the round 25 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Wednesday, February 11th at
Manchester City do not want to go a second season without major success. Under Guardiola, the Citizens reached Champions League glory and dominated English football for years. However, in the 2024/2025 season, despite major January reinforcements, they finished only third in the Premier League. Immediately after that, they lost the cup final to Crystal Palace, and in other tournaments they were eliminated early. This season has been more productive so far. In the Champions League, despite a few setbacks, City finished the main round in the top eight, while in the League Cup they calmly reached the final, beating the defending holders Newcastle twice in the semi-finals. In the Premier League, however, frequent dropped points kept them behind Arsenal for a long time. Even against Tottenham they managed only a draw. But against Liverpool, after conceding first, they pulled off a comeback win with two late goals. Recent league results show that City are gradually regaining their edge in decisive moments. At home, they continue to apply constant pressure and usually turn close matches in their favor.

Fulham earned promotion from the Championship under Marco Silva. Unlike many of their predecessors, the Portuguese coach not only kept them in the Premier League but also turned them into a solid mid-table side. Last spring, they finished 11th with 54 points. This season, they have a real chance to fight for European qualification, and it was no coincidence that a high-profile transfer was completed in London this month, bringing in a player from Manchester City. In the Premier League, a run of wins helped Fulham climb into the upper third of the table. However, recent matches have gone against them. Against both Manchester United and Everton, they failed to even secure a draw, losing 2–3 and 1–2 respectively. In both games, the decisive goal was conceded late. These narrow defeats suggest Fulham are competitive but lacking a bit of sharpness at key moments. Even so, their overall form remains encouraging compared to pre-season expectations.
The 5–4 win in December became the Citizens’ 19th consecutive victory in matches against this London opponent. There are still some questions around the hosts, but at home against a not particularly motivated opponent they should deliver the required result. The bet is on Manchester City to win with a handicap of -1.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win with -1.5 handicap.
