Preview + Form
A tricky match up for the club as they are off a gutsy showing in Europe, in UCL, earning a win away at Madrid. They need the win and all three points and facing a tough challenge in this Palace side, this could be a great opportunity.
It will be a tough match, but one has to back City with Haaland on form and Foden playing really well.
The key battle will be the midfielders chosen. An interesting match up is in tow. Who will play?
Which team will come out in front?

Turning back to the Premier League, we faced Palace the month prior to our head to head in the cup as we played out a 5-2 victory at the Etihad Stadium.
