  • Crystal Palace have won their last three matches in all competitions

  • Manchester City are on a four-game winning streak in all competitions 

  • Recommended bet: Manchester City to win

Crystal Palace secured a 3-0 win over Shelbourne in the Conference League on Thursday to give themselves a great chance of sealing a place in the knockout stages.

The Eagles went into this round of Premier League fixtures in fourth after a wonderful start to the domestic season, and will not be overawed when they host Manchester City on Sunday.

The Citizens are on their own impressive run, winning four games in a row for just the second time this season.

Erling Haaland will be aiming to power City to victory, having netted 21 goals in all competitions this term, with 15 coming in the Premier League.

Team news

Oliver Glasner is waiting to see if both Jean-Philippe Mateta and Ismaila Sarr will be available after recent injury worries.

Daniel Munoz is out until early 2026 in what is a blow for Palace. He joins Cheick Doucoure, Chadi Riad, Rio Cardines and Caleb Kporha on the treatment table ahead of the game.

For Pep Guardiola, he will be missing just three players for the trip to Selhurst Park, with John Stones, Rodri and Mateo Kovacic all unavailable.

The stats

The last meeting between these two came in the FA Cup final, which Palace won 1-0 at Wembley.

Prior to this, the Eagles had gone winless against City across seven matches dating all the way back to October 2021.

City have scored two or more goals against Palace in five of their last six Premier League meetings with Palace.

Guardiola's men have kept in only one clean sheet in their current four-game winning run.

Crystal Palace have conceded only one goal in their last three fixtures, all wins, and have the second-best defensive record in the top flight, having conceded only 12 goals.

The Citizens have conceded four more goals than the Eagles, but they have scored 35 goals in the Premier League, the best record in the division by some distance.

Prediction

Palace hold home advantage for this clash, but City will arrive in London ready to gain revenge following the FA Cup final defeat in May.

Erling Haaland is currently on 15 Premier League goals after as many matches and Guardiola will be counting on the Norwegian to add to this tally on Sunday.

They went into this round of fixtures just two points behind Arsenal in the chase of yet another top-flight title, although that advantage could have stretched to five by the time they take to the field.

Given the form they are in and an extra day's rest, City can keep the pressure on the Gunners by taking all three points, particularly with doubts over star home duo, Mateta and Sarr.

Back Man City to win at 3/4 with LiveScore Bet.
