Crystal Palace vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips (6 April)

14th in the Premier League with 1 game less and 8 points ahead of the first relegated team, Crystal Palace is on a very favorable waiver to avoid the descent. The London team must still remain on its guard. Jordan Ayew's teammates have been moving slowly for several weeks. Indeed, they have only won against relegated Burnley 3-0 in the last 8 days, for 3 draws and 4 defeats. After sharing points with poorly ranked Luton Town 1-1 and Nottingham Forest 1-1, they lost at Bournemouth this week 1-0. Triple reigning English champions, Manchester City are currently 3rd in the Premier League and have 3 points behind the leader.

Confident of their strength, the Cityzens have not lost any of their last 15 championship matches, 11 wins and 4 draws. On the other hand, they have not managed to make the difference against their two direct competitors for the title recently. Indeed, Manchester City had to be content with sharing points at Liverpool 1-1 and against Arsenal last weekend 0-0. This week, Pep Guardiola's men brilliantly resumed their march forward with a clear success against Aston Villa 4-1. Next Tuesday, they travel to the lair of Real Madrid for the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League.

Several elements are missing at Crystal Palace this weekend. This is the case of executives Johnstone (goalkeeper), Guehi (defender) and Cheick Doucouré (midfielder), replacement defender Holding and young midfielder Matheus Franca, all on the flank. In addition, defender Richards and striker Edouard (6 goals in PL) are also injured while midfielder Rak-Sakyi is uncertain. The starting winger Olise (6 goals and 3 assists in 11 PL matches) is, for his part, fit again.

The team has not scored this week at Bournemouth. However, the attacking trio could again be composed of Mateta (6 goals and 4 assists in PL), Eze (6 goals and 2 assists in PL) and Jordan Ayew (4 goals and 6 assists in PL).
