Man City v Crystal Palace: Predictions, tips and bet builder as Citizens chase Champions League carrot
Man City’s pursuit of Champions League qualification continues this weekend as the Citizens welcome Crystal Palace to the Etihad Stadium (Sat, 1230 GMT).
Pep Guardiola’s men are heading into Saturday’s game knowing that a fifth-place คาสิโนออนไลน์ UFABET ฝากถอนรวดเร็ว เริ่มต้นเล่นง่าย finish will be enough to secure top tier European football.
City were booste by an unlikely ally as Arsenal’s victory over Real Madrid secure an extra Champions League spot for the Premier League.
Of course, there’s still a lot of work to do. City enter the weekend in sixth place, sitting a point behind Newcastle and Chelsea.
What’s more, the Citizens are in the midst of poor league form, picking up five points from their previous four games – poor by City standards at least.
Double chance Crystal Palace or Draw
Of all the teams in the Premier League, Crystal Palace boast one of the best recent records at the Etihad.
Their last six visits to the ground produce two wins, two draws and two defeats – not bad going for little old Palace.
Their last trip to the Etihad was back in December and it prove to be a dramatic encounter as Palace fought back from 2-0 down to secure a draw. Michael Olise’s last minute penalty secure the point.
With Oliver Glasner’s men winning six of their last seven games and scoring 16 goals in the process, they will certainly fancy their chances against City.
Guardiola’s men come into this game on the back of a bore Manchester derby in which they mustere a measly xG of just 0.49.
