Manchester City vs Crystal Palace Preview

Crystal Palace are currently in ninth place in the Premier League standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The Eagles eased past Aston Villa to a 3-1 victory last week and will need to work hard to achieve a similar result in this fixture.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are in second place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive this year. The Cityzens were held to a 3-3 draw by Newcastle United in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.

Crystal Palace can pack a punch on their day and have troubled Pep Guardiola's side in the past. Manchester City are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.
