Manchester City can book their ticket to next season’s Champions League when they visit Fulham on the final day of the Premier League campaign.
The Cityzens have endured a testing and disappointing campaign, with defeat to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final last weekend meaning a rare season without major silverware. They have surrendered their Premier League crown with little resistance and are yet to confirm their place in the 2025–26 Champions League ahead of Gameweek 38.
However, they are in an extremely strong position to achieve a top five finish that would grant them access to Europe’s top table, with a draw at Fulham enough to seal their spot thanks to their impressive goal difference.
The Cottagers won’t make life straightforward for Man City but their players might already have one eye on their upcoming holiday. Brighton & Hove Albion’s win against Liverpool last Monday means Fulham have nothing riding on their final day fixture, although they could yet rise to ninth or finish as low as 12th.
Here is preview of the battle in west London.
