Manchester City head into tonight’s Premier League clash in the capital as odds on favourites for victory in their bid to start the league campaign with two wins out of two.

Enzo Maresca’s side came from behind in their last game to earn a hard fought 2-1 win over Bournemouth in the Italian’s first league game in charge of the club since being announced as Pep Guardiola’s successor.

Late goals from two defenders, an 84th minute equaliser from Marc Guehi and a 91st winner from Josko Gvardiol, ensured the Italian picked up his first win as City manager following their disappointing 3-0 defeat by Arsenal in the Community Shield the week before.

The Cityzens, who have been crowned Premier League champions in six of the last nine seasons, will be looking to keep hold of their 100% record in the league as they look to win the league title after a two year drought, their longest time without winning the league since 2017.

Tonight’s match will mark the first home game in charge of the club for new Crystal Palace manager Pierre Sage, who will be looking for his first win in English football after falling to defeat in last week’s opener at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

The Eagles were beaten 2-0 by Everton, but will return to their home ground of Selhurst Park tonight where they ended last season with only one defeat in their last 10 matches, which came on the final day of the league season against champions Arsenal, while Palace will have had half an eye on their Conference League final four days later.

The south London club’s new manager, Sage, spent last season managing Lens in France, and took them to a second placed finish in Ligue 1, while also boasting the best home record in the division, winning 14 of their 17 games, though notably did lose their first home game of last season.

Making Selhurst Park a fortress will be something the Frenchman will be wanting to do again with his new club this season.

Manchester City are unbeaten in their last nine league games against Crystal Palace and haven’t tasted defeat at Selhurst Park across any of their last 11 visits.
