Today’s Manchester City vs. Fulham 2013 soccer game (start time 7 am PST) will feature thirteenth place Fulham seeking an upset. Fulham comes into Saturday’s match with twenty-five points. The team is twelve points out of a fifth place ranking in the league, officials tell news. This season, they have only delivered six wins, seven draws and nine losses.

City in contrast, has impressed news with twelve wins, six draws and only four losses. Prior to Saturday’s match, Fulham boss Martin Jol told news that Bryan Ruiz and Dimitar Berbatov will back in the lineup for Saturday’s showdown. He tells his team’s news website “Regarding injured players, the news is that [Mahamadou] Diarra is still out and Kerim Frei is still out, and that is probably it.” He added “[Mladen] Petri? had a little problem but, hopefully, on Friday he will train with us and then go to Manchester.”

He says, despite the modified lineup today, his team will be ready for City. “It would be better to get the points against the Wigan Athletics and Southamptons of this world. We got two draws [in those matches] so that was disappointing because you can’t expect a team like Fulham to rack up six points against Manchester United and Man City, so every point will be a bonus and we will fight for every point.”

He added “City are out of Europe and they can still live with it as they can focus on the league now. I think that is one of the advantages that they have got over other teams like Manchester United.”

He believes that his team is on a path to improvement however based upon their recent records. “We are still unbeaten in January. We won two away games, which was good; against West Bromwich Albion and Blackpool. We got two draws against Blackpool and Wigan – so our form is not alarming. ” For live score updates today, click HERE.
