"Manchester City have won 10 of their last 11 away league games, losing only against Norwich in this run. They’ve found the net at least once in each of their last 15 league games on the road, netting 36 goals in total."

A Manchester City win and both teams to score is 2.77/4.

Crystal Palace are winless in their last four Premier League home games against Man City (D1 L3) since a 2-1 win in April 2015. Manchester City are 1.261/4 to win.

Man City have scored in 15 of their last 16 Premier League meetings with Crystal Palace, failing only in a goalless draw in December 2017 which ended their top-flight record run of 18 consecutive victories. Over 2.5 goals is 1.4740/85.

Manchester City have won nine of their last 10 Premier League games in London, losing the other against Chelsea in December 2018. They are 1.84/5 to win half-time/full-time.

Crystal Palace are looking to secure three consecutive Premier League wins within the same season for the first time since May 2018. The Eagles are 13.5 to win.

Manchester City have won 10 of their last 11 away league games, losing only against Norwich in this run. They've found the net at least once in each of their last 15 league games on the road, netting 36 goals in total. A Manchester City win and both teams to score is 2.77/4.

There have been 19 Premier League goals scored this season following a move of 10+ passes - eight of them have been scored by Manchester City (42%), while no other side has scored more than two such goals. Over 3.5 goals is 2.166/5.

Since the start of last season Manchester City have conceded the first goal in just five Premier League games (W1 D1 L3). They've done so in two of their eight games this season (losing both), having done so in just three of their 38 games last term (W1 D1 L1). Both teams to score is 1.910/11.

In Man City boss Pep Guardiola's managerial league career, the only English manager he's ever lost to is Crystal Palace's Roy Hodgson (2-3 at the Etihad, December 2018). Crystal Palace are 11.010/1 in the Draw No Bet market.

Only at Anfield (7) has Man City striker Sergio Agüero played more Premier League games without finding the net than he has at Selhurst Park (6). Aguero is 1.748/11 to find the net.

Jordan Ayew's three Premier League goals this season have been worth six points to Crystal Palace - only Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's goals have been more valuable to a side (9). Ayew is 5.59/2 to score.
