"Starting with the hosts, mounting what was a sensational last-gasp comeback at Anfield on Sunday afternoon as they snatched a 2-1 victory against the reigning Premier League champions, Manchester City have kept their title dreams alive. Knowing that they can temporarily move within three points of bitter title rivals Arsenal, Pep Guardiola's men will know the importance of avoiding a potential banana skin when they return to the Etihad on Wednesday night."
"Manchester City Team News All still dealing with respective injury issues, Manchester City will be unable to call upon the likes of John Stones, Josko Gvardiol and former Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic. Likewise, taken off over the weekend with a suspected head issue, Abdukodir Khusanov is not expected to feature. Bagging the winner at Anfield on Sunday afternoon and notching just a second Premier League goal of 2026, striking superstar Erling Haaland will spearhead Guardiola's attack."
"Verdict: Manchester City win Best Odds: 2/5 Bookmaker: Dachbet Knowing that they can temporarily move within three points of top spot, Manchester City will welcome Fulham to the Etihad on Wednesday night. Punching their spot in the final of this season's EFL Cup thanks to a thumping 5-1 aggregate victory against Newcastle last week, the Sky Blues will also be excited by their extended dominance on home soil."
Manchester City revived title hopes with a last-gasp 2-1 win at Anfield and can move within three points of Arsenal with a home win. City secured an EFL Cup final place after a 5-1 aggregate victory over Newcastle and have collected 29 points from 12 Premier League home games without defeat since late August. Key defenders John Stones and Josko Gvardiol and midfielder Mateo Kovacic are sidelined, while Abdukodir Khusanov is doubtful with a suspected head issue. Erling Haaland scored the Anfield winner and will lead the attack, supported by Antoine Semenyo. Fulham beat Brighton 2-1 but then suffered a home collapse, slumping to a 2-1 loss.
