Fulham vs Manchester City History

There are plenty of connections between these two teams, with a number of top players having worn both Fulham and Manchester City colours over the years. These include Welsh defender Kit Symons and tough-tackling midfielder Michael Brown.

Another player to play for both teams comes in the form of cult forward Rodney Marsh. The attacker started his professional career at Fulham, scoring 22 goals in 63 appearances before making the short trip to join QPR in 1966. In 1972 he moved on to Maine Road and went on to make 118 appearances for Manchester City, scoring 36 goals in the process.

Additionally, both Kevin Keegan and Mark Hughes have managed both teams.

Fulham vs Manchester City Head to Head

These two first met in the Premier League era in December 2002, with lively French international Nicolas Anelka scoring the only goal of the game, and the following season the former Arsenal man netted again at Craven Cottage, this time in a 2-2 draw with Paulo Wanchope rescuing a point for the away side with a 90th-minute equalizer.

In September 2007, the two teams enjoyed a spectacular six-goal thriller. Simon Davies put Fulham ahead before the cultured Bulgarian Martin Petrov leveled on 36 minutes. Hameur Bouazza put the Cottagers back in front after 48 minutes, only for Emile Mpenza and Petrov to net again to turn things around and put City 3-2 up. Danny Murphy came off the bench to fire a 75th-minute goal to make it 3-3.

In more recent seasons, unsurprisingly, Manchester City have had the upper hand on their visits to Craven Cottage. In March 2021, John Stones, Gabriel Jesus, and Sergio Aguero all scored in a 3-0 victory, and Fulham suffered relegation back to the EFL Championship.

Things were much closer on Fulham’s return to the top flight, with Marco Silva’s side giving Pep Guardiola’s side a real battle. Erling Haaland scored a third-minute penalty, but the home side scored through Carlos Vinicius on 15 minutes before Julian Alvarez reestablished the lead for Man City on 36 minutes, with Fulham then trying manfully to restore parity without success.
