Crystal Palace may not be able to lay a glove on Manchester City

3pm Saturday

Manchester City returned to winning ways with a comfortable victory over Everton last week and they are an unsurprisingly short price to see off Crystal Palace.

The Citizens were able to rotate much of their first-team squad for Tuesday’s EFL Cup shootout win over Leicester and Pep Guardiola was also able to reintroduce fit-again key men Sergio Aguero and Kevin De Bruyne.

Palace will be boosted by the return of their own main man Wilfried Zaha, but the Eagles have lost five of their last six Premier League away matches and may not be able to land a glove on the champions.

Expect the hosts to record a comfortable victory as they bid to reel in table-topping Liverpool.
