Manchester City travels to Fulham this Tuesday, December 2, 2025, for the 14th matchday of the English Premier League. The game will start at 4:30 PM local time and is set to take place at Craven Cottage. Fans can catch the live action on Disney+.
Currently, Fulham holds the 15th spot in the league standings with 17 points, having won three out of their last four matches. On the other side, Manchester City is positioned second, securing 25 points. Their recent victory against Leeds has reduced the gap with top spot Arsenal to just five points.
Fulham is expected to field Bernd Leno, Kenny Tete, Calvin Bassey, Joachim Andersen, and Ryan Sessegnon; supported by Sander Berge, Alex Iwobi, Harry Wilson, and Joshua King; with Kevin and Raúl Jiménez leading the attack, under coach Marco Silva.
Manchester City could feature Donnarumma; Matheus Nunes, Rúben Dias, Gvardiol, and OâReilly; in midfield are Reijnders, Nico González, and Bernardo Silva; with Foden, Doku, and Haaland spearheading the offense, managed by Pep Guardiola.
Erling Haaland, known for his goal-scoring prowess, hasn’t scored in his past three matches, tallying 270 minutes without a goal. His latest goal came on November 9 against Liverpool in a 3-1 win, despite missing a penalty. Nevertheless, he stands at 14 goals in the Premier League this season.
Even with Haaland’s current lull, Manchester City has continued to thrive. Players such as Phil Foden have stepped up to fill the gap, proving their capability in crucial matches. This collective effort is essential as City navigates both domestic and European challenges, especially if Haaland’s form takes time to recalibrate.
Haaland’s season tally reaches an impressive 32 goals across all contests, averaging close to one and a half goals per match. While his recent quiet period is noteworthy, given his previous dominance in the top scorer race, concerns arise about City’s title and Champions League pursuits if his drought persists.
As City gears up to meet Fulham, a fixture where Haaland has a history of performing well, supporters remain optimistic about his return to form. City has historically had the upper hand against Fulham, winning their last 18 meetings, making Haaland’s goal resurgence a likely prospect.
Everton secured a surprising 1-0 victory over Aston Villa in the Premier League. Thierno Barry’s goal capitalized on a mistake by Villa’s goalkeeper, Emi Martinez, halting Villa’s rise in the standings.
Everton faced Wolverhampton in a tense match that ended in a 1-1 draw. The game was overshadowed by two red cards issued to Everton players Michael Keane and Jack Grealish.
The Premier League’s Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled that Everton should have been awarded a penalty against Arsenal in a recent match, raising significant concerns about the consistency and fairness of officiating.
