Crystal Palace hosts Manchester City in round 29 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Monday, March 14th at Selhurst Park (London)
Crystal Palace is in 11th place in the Premier League standings with 33 points. Patrick Vieira's team has seven victories, 12 draws, and nine defeats after 28 matches. This season the London club has earned the reputation of a tough and uncompromising opponent. In the last eight matches in the Premier League and the FA Cup, the Glaziers lost only to Chelsea at home (0-1). Moreover, they could have tied against the Blues if they hadn't conceded in the 89th minute. On March 5, Crystal Palace dealt with Wolverhampton on a foreign pitch (0-2), making the necessary result in the first half. Goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta and Wilfried Zaha ensured the Eagles a comfortable lead even before the break.

Manchester City tops the Premier League standings with 69 points after 28 matches. Josep Guardiola's team gained 22 victories and three draws and suffered three losses. Yes, the Citizens are still leading, but Liverpool is not far from them. In the last round, the Sky Blues hammered Manchester United in the derby (4-1) and maintained their advantage over the Reds. And on March 9, Manchester City officially qualified for the quarterfinals of the Champions League. After beating Sporting Lisbon in Portugal with a score of 5-0, the Citizens allowed the Lions to gain a goalless draw, which didn’t prevent them from advancing to the next round.
Crystal Palace faced Manchester City in the 10th round in Manchester on October 30, 2021. And the Glaziers gained a sensational 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Wilfried Zaha and Conor Gallagher. The Citizens spent the entire 2nd half in the minority after Aymeric Laporte was sent off. But Crystal Palace is unlikely to stop such a powerful opponent for the 2nd time. Guardiola's team will be motivated to take revenge for the home defeat. In addition, a small gap from Liverpool is forcing the Citizens to do their best in each of the remaining rounds. But they are unlikely to hammer the visitors from London. After a quite tough match in the Champions League, Manchester will score three points in a pragmatic style. This scenario is hinted at by the results of previous head-to-head matches at Selhurst Park. The teams didn’t score more than four goals in the last 14 games at this stadium.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win and Under 4.5 goals scored
