Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Premier League clash between Fulham and Manchester City.

And an early chance for the away side, as Kolarov again provides a good low cross which this time Silva cannot guide past Stekelenburg at full stretch. The Dutchman clings onto this one.

Fulham kick off the second period, two goals to nil down at home to City.

Half-time and City are comfortable at Fulham. Two goals from set pieces have ensured an up-for-it Fulham are no match so far for a City side not only playing away from home, but doing so without Aguero. They're usually ripe for the picking in that situation, but not today.

That one minute and change is enough time for Demichelis to pick up a needless yellow for a cheap foul in the middle of the park.

One minute to be added onto this first period.

Fulham are playing well enough that City needed two set pieces to find their lead, but the fact is that they have and they lead 2-0 away, without Aguero.

GOAL! City double their lead! Demichelis is completely unmarked at the far post and though Stekelenburg gets a touch on it, Kompany is there to stab home the loose ball. 0-2!

Free-kick for City coming up from the right flank.

Frantic scenes from the flag kick as Amorebieta tries to bring it down with enough space for a shot... but City keep the hosts at bay before an offside flag ends the attack.

City lose possession thanks to Sidwell's enquiries and Tarrabt takes it forward before having a shot deflected wide for a corner.

Early substitution from Rene Meulensteen as Senderos makes way for Amorebieta.

For the second time in two minutes Dzeko is picked out inside the Fulham box, this time he is only able to head off-balance and straight at Stekelenburg. It was a good run to stay onside before meeting the early cross from the right.

Dzeko! First-time shot stopped well by Stekelenburg off a Kolarov cross!

Again Silva needs three men to be stopped, with Parker this time putting in the crucial slide, before Taarabt again wins a well-timed free-kick this time from a clumsy Kompany challenge.

Fulham clear their lines before Taarabt wins the foul off Nasri to ease the pressure.

City clear and break away once more, winning a flag kick of their own.

Better from Taarabt as he puts a little more venom into his next shot and Hart pushes it around the near post for a corner.

Taarabt tries to create a chance and ends up doing so... at the other end as his mis-judged pass sparks a City counter that Dzeko in turn wastes with a blocked shot despite having two team-mates open.

Riether cuts inside from the right wing to Dejagah just inside the box, but his dangerous driven centre has no other white shirts to connect with.

Yaya Toure has scored his fourth PL goal this season from a free-kick, more than any other player (Wayne Rooney is next with 3).

Taarabt again from distance, but he needs to start looking for killer balls as Hart is reading these long shots like a children's book. One with lots of pictures.
