Crystal Palace vs Manchester City Prediction Premier League

Crystal Palace vs Manchester City Prediction and Betting Tips for the Premier League clash scheduled on Sunday, December 14, 2025, at 14:00 GMT. The match will be broadcast live on NOW TV and Sky Sports from Selhurst Park in London. It’s a fascinating matchup between two in-form sides chasing big ambitions. In this article, you’ll find expert Premier League Predictions from the XpertStats team, shaped by form, numbers, and that familiar Premier League unpredictability.

Crystal Palace average 2.29 total goals per match this season
Manchester City matches average over 3 goals per game
Both teams show identical BTTS rates at 57%
Recent meetings between these sides have delivered goals

Crystal Palace continue to surprise plenty of observers. Oliver Glasner’s side average 1.29 goals scored per game while conceding just one, keeping their matches finely balanced. Their games cross the 1.5-goal mark 71% of the time, while both teams score in 57% of their fixtures. Selhurst Park hasn’t always been explosive, but Palace stay competitive, patient, and dangerous on the counter. Can they soak up pressure again and strike at the right moment? That’s been the blueprint so far.

Both Teams to Score @1.63
The goal averages on both sides point strongly toward Both Teams to Score. Crystal Palace score just under one and a half goals per game at 1.29, while conceding one exactly. That narrow margin keeps their matches competitive and open. Manchester City, meanwhile, score 1.86 goals per match but concede 1.43, a figure that consistently invites opposition goals. This imbalance between attacking output and defensive solidity explains why City games average 3.29 total goals. Palace’s average sits lower at 2.29, but when these styles meet, the numbers usually rise. Neither team is built to defend a single-goal lead for long periods. Palace’s attack does enough to punish mistakes, and City’s defense allows more chances than in past seasons. With both teams showing identical 57% BTTS rates, the statistical pattern is clear. One goal often leads to another, rather than shutting the game down.
