Manchester City vs Fulham live stream: How to watch Premier League game online and on TV, team news
Fulham have a tendency to push the EPL champions hard
EPL leaders Manchester City needed a deeply controversial 95th-minute penalty to snatch this fixture at the death last season, which should give Fulham all the motivation they need at the Etihad today. Marco Silva's men are at their best when their backs are against the wall, and the Manchester City vs Fulham live stream could serve up one of the games of the weekend — you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN. Take a look at the team news just below.
The Man City vs Fulham live stream takes place today (Sep. 2).

City don't tend to enjoy playing against Fulham, who gave them a real run for their money in both of their league clashes last season. That one of those games was decided by a last-gasp piece of play-acting by Kevin de Bruyne will no doubt be gnawing at Silva's mind, and he'll be sure to remind his players of the incident ahead of today's meeting.
Despite a humdrum start to the season, City are leading the way with a maximum points return. Fulham, meanwhile, are riding real momentum after nearly beating Arsenal with 10 men and knocking Tottenham out of the League Cup on penalties. Raul Jimenez is looking more and more like his old self, and they can now call upon the wing wizardry of Adama Traore, who's been a real thorn in City's side over recent years.
Here's how they line up:
Manchester City: Ederson, Walker, Rúben Dias, Akanji, Aké, Rodri, Kovacic, Foden, Álvarez, Doku, Haaland.
Fulham: Leno, Tete, Diop, Ream, Robinson, Cairney, Reed, Pereira, Wilson, Jiménez, De Cordova-Reid.
