After another action-packed week in the Premier League and UEFA Champions League, we welcome Marco Silva’s men for Saturday’s 15:00pm (UK) kick-off, with the chance to climb to the league’s summit before Arsenal face Chelsea a day later.
City come into the game off the back of successive victories against Leicester (1-0) and Sevilla (3-1), but we’ll have to be at our best to get past Fulham who have impressed since their promotion to the top-flight.
The London side currently sit seventh in the table after a run of five wins, four draws and four losses.
With the World Cup break on the horizon, there is plenty for FPL managers to ponder going into the final two league matches before the hiatus.
Check out our latest Scout Report below ahead of Saturday’s 1:30pm deadline…
CITY STAR
Bernardo Silva (£6.9m) has the home form to deliver another big haul as City entertain Fulham in Gameweek 15 of Fantasy Premier League.
The Portugal international has blanked just once in his five starts at the Etihad Stadium this season, scoring once and supplying four assists.
Indeed, he has averaged 6.4 points per home match when named in Pep Guardiola’s first XI.
Crucially, Bernardo only featured as a substitute against Sevilla in the UEFA Champions League in midweek, which lifts his chances of starting against the Cottagers on Saturday afternoon.
OPPONENT TO WATCH
Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.9m) is the main threat for the visitors. The Serbian has nine goals in 12 appearances this term, including strikes away to both Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.
DIFFERENTIALS
Elsewhere, Leeds United’s Rodrigo (£6.3m) and Nottingham Forest’s Taiwo Awoniyi (£5.7m) are both owned by under 6% of squads ahead of favourable home fixtures.
Rodrigo has scored in back-to-back Gameweeks and entertains Bournemouth.
Awoniyi hosts Brentford having scored in all three of his starts at the City Ground this season.
