Manchester City vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 03/05/2017, 17:15  by | Modified on 04/10/2017 at 06:09 in Premier League Predictions

City start the weekend in fourth place and still hopeful of securing a Champions League place. They are a point clear of Manchester United and six clear of Arsenal who have a game in hand. With Arsenal home to Man Utd this weekend, this is a perfect opportunity for City to strengthen their position. They have gone 12 home league and cup games without defeat but do tend to draw too much at home with three in the last four home league matches. There are three games left after this match and with home matches against Leicester and West Brom and away to Watford on the last day, four wins out of four doesn't look too hard a target.  Crystal Palace have been in good form in recent months and Sam Allardyce has just about gotten them out of relegation trouble. They have lost their last two games but are six points clear of the relegation zone with three games to go and a far superior goal difference. After this game they are home to Hull City and then away to Manchester United and a point might just get them totally safe. Palace have failed to score in their last two games and have already lost twice to City this season. Go for City to win on a -1 handicap.
