Manchester City can move to within three points of Arsenal if they beat mid-table Fulham at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday evening. The Blues came from a goal down on Sunday to beat Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield, a result that will have surprised the most ardent of followers.
Bernardo Silva levelled and Erling Haaland kept his cool to score from the spot to give the Blues only their third win at Anfield since the early 80s to keep the pressure on the Gunners.
Fulham slumped to a 2-1 home defeat to Everton
at the weekend and they will be eager to stop the rot before it begins. The Cottagers have not won away from home since a 1-0 victory at West Ham at the end of December.
Can the Blues keep the momentum going and keep the pressure on Arsenal on a wet night in Manchester?

City look to ride the momentum they built in the last 15 minutes at Anfield. The lads can’t miss a chance to put some real pressure on the Gooners. Come On City!!

Full of confidence against a difficult team but I think City will come out on top. I’m torn between a thumping win or a casual victory. I’m going for thumping.
