Manchester City vs Fulham Odds and Handicap

After destroying Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League, the Citizens have a chance to overtake Liverpool at the top of the table, and they are likely to go all guns blazing against the Cottagers. Even though key midfielders Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri remain in the recovery room, a home win should be considered as Fulham struggles on the road.

Fulham is on a 10-game losing run at Etihad Stadium in all competitions and we do not believe that they are capable of putting an end to the negative trend. Carlos Vinicius is unlikely to be risked, but there are no fresh injury worries in the away team.

Man City enters this clash as huge favorites at a -427 soccer betting line. You can watch the game on FuboTV on Saturday at 10 AM ET.

2 Ways to Bet on Man City vs Fulham

1. Bet on Man City to Cover the Spread

Despite a solid start, there are emerging questions about how they will adapt following a significant blow to their midfield. Rodri, the lynchpin of City’s engine room, has sustained a serious knee injury that will keep him sidelined for the rest of the season.

Rodri’s absence will be felt keenly, as the Spanish midfielder has been central to Pep Guardiola’s tactical setup and is essentially the heartbeat of the team.

There is no like-for-like replacement for Rodri in the squad, and City will now need to improvise to fill this crucial gap but the Citizens are one of the top European teams and they should have enough to cover the spread against Fulham.

Fulham is sitting in a promising position in the Premier League, sitting sixth with 11 points from six games. Marco Silva’s side has had an excellent start to the campaign and will be quietly optimistic about their chances of securing a European place this season.

They might find the back of the net against the reigning champs but there’s no chance they could pull off the upset.

If you’re looking for a great value soccer bet, you should back Man City to cover the -1½ spread.

Bet on Manchester City -1½ (-142)

2. Prop Bets: Erling Haaland Expected to Extend His Scoring Streak

City’s attacking unit remains potent despite the midfield concerns. Erling Haaland has started the season in typically prolific form, while the likes of Jack Grealish and Bernardo Silva provide ample creativity in the final third.

Erling Haaland has netted in four of Manchester City’s last six Premier League home matches.

If you’re looking for a great soccer player prop, back Erling to find the back of the net at least twice.

Bet This Pick: Erling Haaland to Score 2+ Goals (225)
