Crystal Palace – Manchester City Tip Premier League, Matchday 16 on Sunday, 14.12.25 at 15:00 CET
Just as Pep Guardiola vowed to improve and worked feverishly over the summer to rebuild the Citizens, the Oddset odds boost now promises even more lavish profits than a year ago.
In my Crystal Palace Manchester City prediction for the upcoming clash in the Premier League, I’ll make it easy for myself – simple combination tip, high payout.
Because the Manchester City odds of about 1.85 for an away three at Selhurst Park are an amazingly good offer.
Especially since the Eagles have not won any of their last ten Premier League home games against Man City since 2015 (3 draws, 7 defeats) despite the home advantage.
Crystal Palace vs. Man City AI predictions:
I expect an away win, but our data model tells me via its Crystal Palace Manchester City AI forecast that it would probably be more advisable to make an over-goal bet.
Over 3.5 goals is a suggestion at odds of about 2.62, which seems a bit courageous at first, but it is not given the offensive potential of both teams.
Hold on tight: In each of the last four joint point game duels, both sides have always scored at least two goals per exchange!
Predicted chance of winning:

3+ goals: Manchester City requires a hat-trick from the Sky Blues to pay out the odds of around 3.20 traded on the markets – and that could absolutely happen.
The Citizens lead the Premier League with 35 goals and an xG value of 30.0 in both rankings. That’s exactly why I think they will leave Arsenal behind in the table in the long term.
The selection Haaland scores is ultimately old hat, but with the regularity with which the Norwegian hits, the odds of about 2.02 are simply too good to simply be ignored.
