Man City vs Fulham

This is a high-stakes match for City (#3) who trail Arsenal by 6 points; another slip-up could derail their title bid. Fulham (#15) have moved clear of the relegation zone and are playing with tactical freedom. The 'narrative' factor is high for ex-City winger Oscar Bobb, who has become a focal point of Fulham's attack.
