THE LOWDOWN
CRYSTAL PALACE
- Whilst Crystal Palace do sit safely in mid-table as it stands, the pressure is starting to build on Patrick Vieira with his side having now gone ten games without a win in all competitions, a run which has lasted throughout 2023 so far.
- After being sent off against Aston Villa, Cheick Doucoure misses out here through suspension, whilst goalkeeper Sam Johnstone is sidelined with a calf injury.
MAN CITY
- After setting the tone earlier in the day with a 2-0 win against Newcastle, Man City were left frustrated by Arsenal’s last-gasp winner over Bournemouth last Saturday which left the reigning champions still five points adrift of the league leading Gunners.
- Phil Foden has seemingly recovered from a minor foot injury and in current form, should command a place in Pep Guardiola's starting line-up once again.

THE PREDICTION
Crystal Palace can prove very stubborn opposition, especially at Selhurst Park where they have conceded just one goal across their last three league fixtures, shutting out both Liverpool and Newcastle. With that in mind, don’t expect Man City to walk all over Palace here on a ground which saw them held to a 0-0 draw almost a year to the day last season. However, the integration of Phil Foden back into the starting line-up has reaped its rewards recently for Man City, giving them an extra attacking edge, which has seen three wins and nine goals scored across their last three in all competitions. The visitors should do enough to record another crucial three points in South London.
TIP: MAN CITY TO WIN
