Crystal Palace vs Manchester City Predicted Lineups - Premier League Predicted Lineups and Crystal Palace, Manchester City injury news, suspension list, and more

After facing a dry 0-1 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur in the first leg of Champions League 2018-19, Manchester City will visit Selhurst Park on Sunday afternoon to face one of the most prominent Premier League giant-killers, Crystal Palace.

The match will be held in Crystal Palace territory, so it could be a headache for the City boss, Pep Guardiola.

Last time they clashed, Manchester City welcomed Crystal Palace back in December 2018, it was a stunning 2-3 victory for The Eagles. The Manchester side has a fine chance of surpassing table-toppers Liverpool, as The Reds will host Chelsea later on the same day.

Man City hold the 2nd position with 80 points, although the men in sky-blue have played one less game than the table toppers, who have 82 points in their bag.

Crystal Palace will be looking to stun this City side in front of their fans, whereas Pep will be looking to rest some superstar players ahead of Wednesday's quarterfinal second leg at the Etihad Stadium.
