Crystal Palace vs. Manchester City: Prediction, date, venue, and how to watch Premier League match

The Sky Blues survived an opening weekend scare as they needed late goals from Marc Guehi and Josko Gvardiol to secure a 2-1 victory over visiting Bournemouth, earning Enzo Maresca his first win as manager of the clulb. 

The Cherries did very well to hold off City's impressive squad for 83 minutes of that match, giving the Sky Blues' players lots to learn from as they continue their transition under the new boss.

Meanwhile, Palace found themselves on the wrong end of a 2-0 loss to Everton last weekend, getting the Pierre Sage era underway in underwhelming fashion.

Sage replaced Oliver Glasner as Palace's manager over the summer, with the latter leaving the team to seek greener pastures with Nottingham Forest. The new boss has a lot of work ahead of him after the Eagles finished last season in 15th, and their first result of the new campaign suggests that the job may be even tougher than previously thought.

Crystal Palace vs. Manchester City prediction

Both sides are still settling under new managers, but if the first matchday is anything to go by then Man City appear much further along than Palace.

This makes sense given their relative places on the table last season, and as such the visitors should be considered the favourites.

Prediction: Crystal Palace 1-2 Manchester City
