A massive mismatch on paper here in the EPL this Saturday, but given Crystal Palaces’ defensive style and Manchester City perhaps not being on top form might be the perfect mix for a big upset here at The Etihad.
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palaces’ decision to focus mainly on defensive football has worked wonders this year as they have only scored 20 goals thus far this season and amazingly find themselves in 9th. That is made even more amazing by the fact that Tottenham has 1 more point then them, yet have scored nearly twice as many goals.
That defensive style will help them in this spot, as top 6 teams will not be able to walk all over them and, if they can take their chances, they will give themselves a chance to pick up a point. Wilfried Zaha does not light up the scoreboard, but has been absolutely rock solid for this team and he will play a big part in this game, especially in terms of the team’s defense.

Crystal Palace should also be able to build off of their last match which was an impressive 1-1 draw at home against Arsenal. Now obviously Manchester City is a different animal than Arsenal, but a repeat of that scoreline seems at least somewhat plausible here and with the draw nearly at 10-1 here it might be worth a second look.
Manchester City
It looks like Champions League, or big time bust this year for Manchester City as it does not seem at all likely that they will be able to catch unbeaten Liverpool for the top spot in the Premier League. Manchester City will be feeling better about themselves now, as they have score 13 goals in their last 3 games in what were 3 convincing victories.
That run also included a 3-1 win over their most hated rivals Manchester United in the League Cup. In terms of playmakers and players to look out for in this matchup you could go with any number of guys, as this squad is still stacked top to bottom, but I would look for Sergio Aguero again in this one who scored a hat-trick in their last game an seems to be getting hot as of late.
Free Crystal Palace vs Manchester City EPL Prediction:
As tempting as it is to go out on a limb and tip a big upset here I am going to keep it simple by backing the over here, as I think it has a very good chance of hitting here. I think Crystal Palaces’ defense will be overwhelmed here and this game will turn out to be a shootout. The thing about the over here, is that even if you do not believe Crystal Palace can score City can get this game over all by themselves.
