Manchester City boss Sven-Goran Eriksson is expecting a difficult afternoon when his side host relegation-haunted Fulham on Saturday.Like City, Fulham need points but for a different reason as they are battling to beat the drop. Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson has found it difficult turning things around at Craven Cottage after replacing Lawrie Sanchez last December.

But despite their struggles, Eriksson is certainly taking nothing for granted.

He said: "It will be a very difficult game for us as it is maybe Fulham's last chance to stay up.

"I expect them to fight of course. We will have to play very well to beat them."
