At 19:30 Beijing time on April 6, 2024, the 32nd round of the English Premier League will be the first to start a competition, and Manchester City, the favorite to win the championship, will face Crystal Palace away. Who's going to die in this game? I'm going to do a little bit of a quick analysis of this game.
Crystal Palace, playing at home, sacked legendary manager Roy Hodgson. At present, it has 7 wins, 9 draws and 14 losses, and has slipped to 14th place in the standings, and the last 4 rounds of winless form are worrying. It can be seen that after the change of coach, Crystal Palace still has not gotten rid of the slump. To make matters worse, Palace have won less than 30 per cent of their home games this season. It's a standard home bug team, and the poor home record, combined with the recent slump in form, makes it debatable whether Crystal Palace can upset Manchester City
Manchester City, which is playing away, is still ranked third in the league, and Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool are still the first group in the Premier League title, and no one wants to drop the chain at this time. Manchester City thrashed Aston Villa 4-1 in the last round thanks to a hat-trick from Phil Foden. But just two days later, they faced off against Crystal Palace. And next week Manchester City will also usher in the Champions League summit showdown with Real Madrid, such a dense and devilish schedule is extremely unfavorable for Manchester City, but for Manchester City, this is a game they must win, on the one hand, to cheer up the Champions League, and on the other hand, not to fall behind at the crucial moment of the title race. In preparation for the Champions League clash with Real Madrid, Manchester City will have to settle the battle as soon as possible, with the minutes of key players such as Foden and Erling Haaland set limited, and substitutes such as Alvarez are likely to get some appearances.
From the overall strength point of view, Manchester City occupies an overwhelming advantage, in terms of head-to-head records, Manchester City has achieved 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, and also has the upper hand, although next week due to the fierce battle of Real Madrid, but Guardiola will not have reservations in the face of Crystal Palace, so this game is still optimistic about Manchester City winning away from home.
