Fulham F.C. vs Manchester City F.C. Prediction 25 May 2025
Added on 24 May, 2025
The final round of the Premier League brings us a compelling matchup as Fulham host Manchester City.
Sitting comfortably in tenth place with 54 points and a goal difference of 54:52, Fulham have had a mixed run of form in recent weeks. They’ve impressed with away wins over Southampton (2-1) and Brentford (3-1), but those highs were tempered by defeats to Chelsea (1-2), Aston Villa (0-1), and Everton (1-3). The Cottagers have little left to fight for but will aim to finish the season on a high note in front of their home fans.
Manchester City, on the other hand, are still chasing Champions League qualification and cannot afford any missteps. Currently third with 68 points and a goal difference of 70:44, the reigning champions have mostly handled business with victories over Everton (2-0), Aston Villa (2-1), Wolverhampton (1-0), and Bournemouth (3-1), though their goalless draw with relegated Southampton raised a few eyebrows.
Given the circumstances, City are expected to approach this fixture with full intensity and motivation. With their superior quality and a lot more riding on the outcome, Pep Guardiola’s side should be poised for a focused and controlled performance. Barring surprises, this looks like a strong opportunity for City to end the season with a convincing win against a Fulham side with little at stake.
