Crystal Palace vs Man City prediction and odds: Pep Guardiola will be wary of bogey team in Premier League clash

Manchester City will be looking to extend their lead at the top when they travel to Selhurst Park against Crystal Palace after Liverpool picked up another three points this weekend.
City are the clear favourites at 1/3 with Betfred while Palace are 9/1 and a draw is 9/2.
Anything other than a win will be unacceptable in Pep Guardiola's eyes as his side's lead at the top of the Premier League table was reduced to just three points after Liverpool beat Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0 on Saturday.
A win at Selhurst Park will mean City have a bit more breathing space but does mean they have played a game more than their title rivals which could see a dramatic end to the title race this season.
But they will need to make sure they avoid a banana skin moment against Crystal Palace who have a history of getting a result against Guardiola's side.

The Algerian has been in excellent form this season picking up 21 goals and seven assists in 34 matches in all competitions including 10 goals from 21 league games too.
He was brilliant in the Manchester Derby last week too scoring a brace against Ralf Rangnick's side.
This will be the 67th meeting between the two sides with Man City picking up 35 wins, 14 draws and 17 losses against Palace in all competitions.
