Manchester City take on the visitors Crystal Palace in the round 4 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, August 27th at Etihad Stadium (Manchester).
Manchester City managed to record a few misfires in the new season. The "Citizens", of course, are considered as one of the strongest clubs not only in England but also in the world. Moreover, in the summer it turned out to crank out several interesting deals. It is here Erling Haaland will continue his career. And the middle of the field was strengthened by Calvin Phillips, who in Leeds has grown to the level of the national team. Finally, Sergio Gomez, if not Cucurella, was acquired on the left flank of the defense. But before confident victories with West Ham and Bournemouth were 1-3 in the Super Cup with Liverpool. And in the last round, points were lost in the Premier League, with Newcastle. And yet, losing 1-3, the favorite was able to at least snatch a draw.

Crystal Palace continues the project that started last season. The Glaziers abandoned the stability and the decision to replace the experienced Hodgson with the promising Vieira was a symbol of this. The composition was also rejuvenated, and this trend continued this summer. And the updated team looks quite combat-ready in August. The London team got off to a pretty good start. Yes, they lost 0-2 in the 1st round to Arsenal, but there was a lot of bad luck there: the team that seemed to have turned the tide of the game was broken by Guehi’s own goal. But a week later, it turned out to keep Liverpool, having played 1-1 at Anfield (although Darwin Nunez also “helped” there with an early removal). Finally, last Saturday they finally managed to win - Aston Villa were beaten 3-1 despite a quick goal conceded. Still important is Zaha, who scored a double in that match.
Unexpectedly, but Crystal Palace under Vieira, last season, did not lose and did not even conceded from Manchester City. First, the Eagles beat the champion in his lair 2-0, then there was a goalless draw in London. Manchester City is the favourite, and it makes sense. But Crystal Palace is big enough to resist the giant again. We bet on the victory of the visitors with a handicap of "+2.5 goals".
Prediction for the match: Crystal Palace to win with +2.5 handicap.
