Manchester City v Crystal Palace Betting Preview – Premier League 6th May 12.30pm

Manchester City have three of their remaining games this season to play out at the Etihad, including this Saturday lunchtime affair. However, they have found wins hard to come by lately because of their defence and with Crystal Palace scoring well enough on the road this season, the Eagles will turn up and give the Citizens a real battle.

Manchester City v Crystal Palace Betting Tips

Manchester City need to put a strong finish on the table down the final stretch. They get three home games on the bounce now. They have slipped to just the two wins in their last eight league games (D5 L1) so they aren’t running in top gear at the moment and that is a lot of points they have dropped with all of those drawn games. The Citizens are unbeaten in nine at home now in the league, but three of their last four there have been drawn. City though have won eight of their last nine Premier League games against Crystal Palace (L1), with their only defeat in this run coming in April 2015 (1-2 at Selhurst Park). Manchester City are on a six-match unbeaten streak at home against Palace in the Premier League. Both teams to score at Bet365 is a price of 7/10 and City have scored twelve goals in their last three home games against the Eagles. In the correct score market, a Man City 3-1 win is a price of 10/1. In the anytime goalscorer market Gabriel Jesus at 8/15 and he’ll have to take a starring role with Aguero injured.

Palace have done pretty well for goals out on the road this season in the top flight, netting 26 times and Christian Benteke is a 2/1 anytime goalscorer option for them in this one. He has not scored a league goal against City before though. Palace aren’t quite safe at the moment, but will probably do enough to keep themselves in the top flight. They have actually won three of their last four games away from home in the league (L1) and they scored two goals in each of those away victories. Over 2.5 goals at Bet36 is running at a price of 4/11, but the Eagles have failed to score in their last three Premier League games at the Etihad and Man City to win to nil is a bold bet at 11/8. Crystal Palace could actually become only the fourth team to win away at each of Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City in a Premier League season and they have won more points (19) in their last 10 Premier League games than Man City have (17).

Manchester City v Crystal Palace Predictions

Man City Home Win: The Citizens are not having an easy time of things at the moment, but with Palace falling at home to Burnley last weekend, you would have to swing with the home side in this one. Both teams to score, but City to find a way to win.
