Manchester City - Crystal Palace betting tips and odds

Manchester City have been installed as firm favourites by the best online bookmakers and anything but a home win in this match would be considered a huge upset.

This one has Home Win written all over it. The hosts are expected to grab a firm hold of the proceedings and Crystal Palace will be left with slim pickings in this match.

City are coming on the back of a close 1:0 victory against Brighton & Hove Albion. Last round saw them grab an early lead and not let up until the very end – an effective strategy, if a bit dull for their fans at home ground.

The Eagles’s previous performance against Arsenal was a stalemate for most of the runtime. Considering Arsenal were expected to steamroll the far weaker away team, however, a : draw is a fairly decent outcome for Crystal Palace.

With 6 goals in their previous 3 Premier League matches, The Sky Blues’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

The Eagles’s defensive line has been a source of frustration for their fans in recent outings. Their previous 3 home games were marked by 8 conceded goals, and betting predictions are suggesting Over markets.

The season is quite promising for The Sky Blues so far – with a 3rd spot in the standings, they’re still in the race for a shot at the title. They are trailing the Premier League leaders by 4 points and not all is lost at this stage of the season.

Going for a Half Time/Full Time bet on Home/Home is a great way of bringing the returns up without compromising on the risks involved. There’s still risk involved, mind you, but this wager offers decent value at the 1.61 odds with bet365.
