Crystal Palace vs Manchester City: Premier League Predictions, Odds, and Expert Picks

Enzo Maresca will look to build on a positive beginning at the Etihad as his Manchester City side travels to face Crystal Palace. The new City boss saw his team pull off a late comeback against Bournemouth, thanks to two goals from defenders, snatching victory despite a less-than-stellar performance.

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace, led by Pierre Sage in his first home game as manager, will be eager to bounce back after their opening day loss. Selhurst Park’s evening atmosphere often makes it tough for visitors, giving the Eagles a chance to secure their first point under Sage.

Match Prediction

This could be one of the best chances to challenge City so far this season, with Maresca still settling in and transfer business ongoing. Bournemouth nearly upset City recently, which suggests Palace could cause problems, especially at home.

Score prediction: Crystal Palace 1, Manchester City 1 (odds +750 with bet365)

Top Betting Tips for Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

• Both teams to score (odds -145 on DraftKings): Our 1-1 draw forecast supports this bet. Despite City’s 3-0 wins over Palace last season, the squad is adjusting post-Pep Guardiola, with key midfielders Rodri and Bernardo Silva gone. Palace should find chances to score.
• Draw (odds +128 on FanDuel): Palace are known for being hard to break down, famously winning the FA Cup final against City in May 2025. With passionate home fans, expect a tight contest.
• Erling Haaland to score anytime (odds -110 on DraftKings): Haaland recently cut his signature blonde hair and missed scoring on opening day, ending his streak. Still, his August record is outstanding, with 22 goals in 15 games during that month. If City score, Haaland is likely to be involved.
