Manchester City is playing some of its best soccer of the year and will look to pick up a few more points on Saturday when it takes on Fulham.
Roberto Mancini's club has put up four straight wins, including three in Premier league play. In its last three matches overall, the team has not conceded a single goal and has scored eight. In its last four wins, the team has scored 12 goals. Manchester struggled to score earlier in the season, but the resurgence of Edin Dzeko has rectified some of these woes. Dzeko has scored four goals in his last four games for the club; he had only scored one goal in the previous 13 contests. Dzeko now leads the club with 10 goals. The rest of the forwards need to pick up their play however as Carlos Tevez has only scored once in eight games while Sergio Aguero has tallied just three times in the last 10 matches.
The strikers will get a chance to break out offensively against Fulham. Martin Jol's side has the sixth worst defense in the league and has conceded 38 times in 22 matches. In the last six premier league matches, the club has only won once.
In their previous tilt on September 29, Manchester City won 2-1 in Fulham.
Predictions: With this match taking place at the Ethiad Stadium, Manchester City likely wins this easily: 3-0.
