Sports Mole takes a look at Manchester City striker Erling Haaland's record against Fulham, including overall wins, goals and assists.

Manchester City's leading marksman Erling Haaland will be looking to get back on the scoresheet when the Citizens welcome Fulham to the Etihad Stadium for a Premier League clash on Saturday afternoon.

The Norwegian drew a blank in front of goal in the top flight for the first time this season when the Citizens were held to a 1-1 draw with Newcastle United at St James' Park last weekend.

However, Haaland made the net ripple in City's comfortable 4-0 victory away against Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League on Tuesday night, taking his goal tally across all competitions to 11 this term.

Ahead of this weekend's encounter, Sports Mole takes a closer look at Haaland's record against Fulham.

Erling Haaland's record vs. Fulham

Played: 4
Won: 4
Drawn: 0
Lost: 0
Goals: 5
Assists: 1

Since joining Man City from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2022, Haaland has faced Fulham competitively four times, all in the Premier League, and has helped the Citizens come out on top on each occasion.

The Norwegian was called upon to save Man City's bacon in his first meeting with the Cottagers in November 2022. The Citizens were drawing 1-1 at the Etihad until Haaland stepped up to convert a dramatic 95th-minute winning penalty.

Haaland was also on target in the reverse fixture at Craven Cottage five months later, scoring from the penalty spot once again but this time after just three minutes as the Citizens picked up maximum points in a 2-1 victory.

City's No.9 then enjoyed a memorable afternoon at the Etihad in September 2023, as he scored a superb second-half hat-trick in the space of just 37 minutes to help Pep Guardiola's side cruise to a 5-1 win.

After setting up Julian Alvarez for City's opener just after the half-hour mark, Haaland was at his clinical best after the interval, slotting home a composed first and smashing in a second from the penalty spot, before completing his treble with a drilled left-footed strike in the fifth minute of stoppage time.

Man City put Fulham to the sword 4-0 in their most recent meeting at Craven Cottage in May 2024, but Haaland was unable to get his name on the scoresheet on that occasion despite playing for 82 minutes.
