Pep Guardiola’s side returned to the top of four in the Premier League table following their midweek victory at the Etihad, and will be looking to string back to back wins together with victory in South London on Saturday to get their title charge back on track. The Citizens are looking to win a record extending fifth consecutive league title, but currently find themselves nine points shy of the league leaders Liverpool, not helped by their 2-0 defeat an Anfield last weekend. Standing in their way this time are a Crystal Palace side who have slowly been getting their act together after a desperately disappointing start to the campaign which saw them go winless in their opening nine matches of the league season. Oliver Glasner’s side are still finding victories hard to come by, but have at least made themselves hard to beat in recent weeks having lost only one of their last seven matches in all competitions. The Eagles did pick up their second win of the league campaign in midweek, and a first away from home after taking all three points back from Suffolk following a 1-0 win at Ipswich. The victory now leaves a three point gap between the two sides either side of the relegation zone, the Eagles currently 17th in the table. Manchester City have fallen to defeat in each of their last three away league matches but take on a Palace side with just one home league win to their name all season. The visitors will also be aided by the return to fitness of Kevin de Bruyne who was instrumental in City’s 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest on Wednesday, bagging a goal and an assist in his first start for the club since September. I expect Manchester City to win at Selhurst Park on Saturday, with renewed confidence following the end of their winless streak, taking on a Palace side still bereft of much confidence. I think a 2-1 away win is very much on the cards. Crystal Palace v Manchester City betting tips Manchester City will feel revitalised after their long awaited taste of victory having gone seven matches without one, their win coinciding with de Bruyne’s return to the starting eleven, who scored and assisted in a man of the match performance on Wednesday night.
