Fresh from an emphatic victory over title rivals Arsenal, Manchester City travel to Craven Cottage to take on Fulham on Sunday (14:00). We've previewed this game and provided you with some suggested best bets for the occasion.
Fulham vs Man City Tips
- Man City to win and both teams to score @ 9/5
- Kevin De Bruyne to score anytime @ 2/1
Fulham's (10/1) ambition when they were promoted back to the top-flight of English football last season would have been to ensure that they survived.
Despite losing to Aston Villa on Tuesday night, the Cottagers are now mathematically safe from relegation, and now they can aim for a top-half finish which would represent a remarkable effort from Marco Silva and his players.
As for Manchester City (1/4), their clash with Arsenal was billed as a title decider, but Pep Guardiola's side were far too strong for their rivals, winning 4-1 in a dominant display.
The Citizens have won 12 of their last 13 matches in all competitions, and look to have hit peak form at the perfect time, with the chance of achieving a continental treble very much a possibility.
Better still, City carry a 17-match unbeaten streak into Sunday's clash, having notched 14 wins and three draws since their last loss.
Team News
Aleksandar Mitrovic continues to serve an eight-game ban for Fulham, while Layvin Kurzawa remains sidelined with a knee injury, and Harry Wilson and Willian are doubts for Sunday's clash.
Meanwhile Nathan Ake is Manchester City's only injury absentee, meaning Pep Guardiola has the freedom to rotate.

Man City to win and both teams to score @ 9/5
I can't see anything other than a City win on Sunday if I'm being honest - they are in stellar form.
The Citizens have scored 15 times across their last three league games alone, while they've scored three or more in eight of their last nine matches. However, they have kept just one clean sheet in their past seven away matches - two in their last 11 league outings in total - so I wouldn't be shocked if Fulham somehow manage to get on the scoresheet.
However, the Cottagers have lost six of their last eight, so I'm anticipating a heavy defeat could be on the cards.
Kevin De Bruyne to score anytime @ 2/1
The Belgian was too hot to handle against Arsenal, bagging himself a brace in what was a fine performance.
De Bruyne has scored nine times across all competitions this season but he has been involved heavily in the final third for City in the past four league matches, racking up five assists against the likes of Liverpool, Southampton, Leicester City and the Gunners.
I think 2/1 is decent value for the midfielder to continue his goalscoring form at Craven Cottage.
