Crystal Palace host Manchester City at Selhurst Park, London on Friday, Aug 28 at 9:00 PM in the Premier League.
Crystal Palace come into this fixture in mixed form (0W 0D 1L). Manchester City, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (1W 0D 0L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Crystal Palace head into this on the back of a defeat, while Manchester City arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
Despite playing at home, Crystal Palace face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Manchester City have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Crystal Palace won 0–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Crystal Palace a slight edge, but Manchester City are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
