Crystal Palace - Manchester City predictions

Kickoff starts at 15:00 on 14/12/2025 played @ Selhurst Park

While Crystal Palace winning is still technically possible, we wouldn’t hold our breath. They are severely outmatched compared to Manchester City, so even a draw result would be quite surprising.

With a price of 1.86 on them winning, The Citizens should definitely feel more confident going into this match. Of course, the difference is not insurmountable, so we’d say a draw is quite likely as well.

The Eagles will be flying high on confidence for their Sunday game following a morale-boosting win achieved in the last round of the Premier League. A difficult away game was on the table for The Eagles and they kept it level at the halftime mark only to emerge victorious by a narrow, one-goal margin after the final whistle!

Meeting The Citizens in their home turf cannot be easy. Last round, they walked away with a convincing 3:0 victory against Sunderland and three additional points on the scoreboard. With the odds of 1.30 the victory came as no surprise and they will likely show the same form as visitors.

The Eagles have won 3 away matches in a row and must be feeling fairly confident with a home game heading their way. Online bookmakers definitely feel they should be backed to beat Manchester City.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Premier League engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

The Eagles are on the track to a Champions League qualification with their current table placement, but the season is still in its early stages. Coming out on top this Sunday will be a difficult task in its own right, so the future is uncertain.

The Sky Blues are among the best-placed teams so far with a 2nd spot in the standings. With most of the season still ahead of us, though, there will be plenty of room for changes in the table. They still have a chance to go for the title, but losing their current position is a possibility as well.

The Sky Blues are the favourites between these two teams, partly due to the way things ended the last time we saw them clash. In the previous season of the Premier League, City got hold of a decisive victory that still marks them as the better team.

The absence of injuries or suspensions means both teams will have their full lineups at their disposal for a thrilling matchup.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.65 odds offered at 888Sport.
