bet365 bonus code: Claim £30 in free bets for Crystal Palace vs Man City with SUN365

FRIDAY night at Selhurst Park brings the visit of a Manchester City side who needed two goals in the last six minutes to survive their opener, and a Palace team still hunting their first point of the season. Marc Guéhi returns to the ground he captained, while City’s pursuit of Adam Wharton hangs over the whole occasion. Crystal Palace began life under Pierre Sage with a 2-0 defeat at Everton that flattered the hosts. The Eagles carved out three clear openings before the interval and took none of them, Eddie Nketiah and Jean-Philippe Mateta both striking Jordan Pickford’s left post, before Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Thierno Barry punished them after the break. The night got worse when defender Chadi Riad was carried off on a stretcher with a knee injury in the closing stages. Manchester City got away with one at the Etihad. Enzo Maresca‘s first home league game as City boss was heading for defeat after Marcus Tavernier put Bournemouth ahead, until Guéhi headed an 84th-minute equaliser from a Rayan Cherki corner and Josko Gvardiol forced home an added-time winner. It followed a 3-0 Community Shield hammering by Arsenal, and City lost £116m debutant Elliot Anderson to an apparent knee problem on the hour.

The betting angle: Can Sage’s Eagles punish a City side still under construction? Palace were far from disgraced on Merseyside and the underlying story was profligacy rather than passivity. Adam Wharton ran the midfield despite the noise around City’s rejected enquiry for him, Daichi Kamada looked the most dangerous player on the pitch, and Dwight McNeil offered a threat on his debut against his old club. Sage has lost his first-choice centre-half to injury and his captain to Manchester in the space of eight months, though, and a back line without Riad and Marc Guéhi faces a stern examination. City are visibly a work in progress. Maresca deployed Guéhi as a holding midfielder in a tactical surprise and pushed Nico O’Reilly into the number 10 role, neither of which convinced, while Erling Haaland remains stuck on 162 goals from 200 City appearances after a quiet afternoon. Jeremy Doku is sidelined with a calf problem and Anderson’s fitness is a genuine worry, but the champions’ runners-up still found two goals from nowhere and won 3-0 on this ground in May. Expect Palace to carry a real threat on the counter against a City defence that has now conceded four unanswered goals across Maresca’s two biggest games, with the visitors’ quality eventually telling in a game that should produce goals at both ends.
