All statistics, including an in-depth look at the form of both sides and head to head (H2H) history, will change as you browse each of the seventeen betting markets using the tabs below.

Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest we don't have an obvious winner here, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that C Palace and Man City will find the net twice at least between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Oliver Glasner or Josep Guardiola i Sala has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.22 equating to about a 78% probability.
