Crystal Palace

  • Crystal Palace are in the FA Cup final for only the third time and have never won the trophy.
  • The Glaziers have not lost a competitive game in their last five matches.
  • The high number of draws in the league is striking: we have already recorded 13 draws.

Manchester City

  • It is City's third final in a row, having previously beaten Man United 2-1 and 1-2.
  • The Skyblues have gone ten competitive matches without a single defeat.
  • They have not conceded a goal in their last three matches and have not scored more than two.
Result tip
2:2
Four goals have always been scored in recent meetings. And Crystal Palace are certainly capable of extra time because they are unbeaten in five matches and have put in a very good performance in the FA Cup in particular.

What speaks for Crystal Palace vs Manchester City in the betting tip?

One thing is certainly not in Crystal Palace's favor in today's betting tips. The team of Austrian coach Oliver Glasner has yet to win a major title. The club has also only reached the FA Cup final twice - without a happy ending in the 1989/90 season and most recently in 2015/16. The Glaziers have had a stable season in the Premier League and are in twelfth place ahead of matchday 37. The high number of draws (13) was striking here. Only Arsenal FC (14) and Everton FC (15) drew more often against their opponents.

The Glaziers are most likely to suffer in offense

Crystal Palace have not lost in their last five competitive games (two wins, three draws). Only two goals were scored against Nottingham Forest (1:1) and 2:0 at Tottenham Hotspur (2:0) and the Under 2.5 was up. In general, The Glaziers are one of the weaker teams in the Premier League in attack, scoring 46 goals. That is an average of just 1.28 goals.

Crystal Palace beat Aston Villa 3-0 in the FA Cup semi-final - just as they had done in the quarter-final at Fulham FC. And the team scored three times in a row in this competition.

WE RECOMMEND THE UNDESIDE X WITH THE QUOTE 3.80

How good is Manchester City's current form?

The fact that Man City are the favorites for the FA Cup final should come as no surprise in these football predictions. Especially as Manchester City already reached the final in 2024 (1-2 against Man United) and won the 2023 FA Cup 2-1 - again against Manchester United. That was also the Citizens' seventh success in the competition. Things did not go well for the Sky Blues in the Premier League for a long time. Currently fourth in the table, Pep Guardiola's team are not even sure of a place in the Champions League and have to tremble.

Himmelblauen in good form and with a strong defense

At least the Sky Blues were still able to rely on their offense most of the time, which is why 67 goals scored is the third-best figure in the English championship. In addition, the Skyblues have now gone ten games unbeaten in all competitions (seven wins, three draws). However, the really big scoring feasts have not materialized. Three times in a row we have recorded an Under 2.5, with Man City not conceding a goal and playing to nil. In total, this goal bet worked out six times in the last eight games. The Both Teams Not To Score was also on the agenda six times.

Skyblues without a defeat in seven league games

To ensure that your betting tipster can rely on the most accurate prediction possible, we have concluded this comprehensive betting tip analysis with a look at the head-to-head meetings and the H2H record. In the first leg of the 2024/25 Premier League season, Oliver Glasner's side still managed a 2-2 draw. However, they were last defeated 5-2 at the Etihad Stadium in April despite scoring two goals themselves. The Sky Blues have not lost to Crystal Palace seven times in a row, but the final score has been drawn three times. In the past four Premier League duels, the Over 3.5 has always worked out with at least four goals.

Our prediction for Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

In our expert tips, we have noted an Over 2.5, especially as at least four goals have always been on the agenda in this pairing recently. What's more, Manchester City's last two FA Cup finals have each produced three goals. In addition, the Draw X promises strong odds. The risk may be worth it: Crystal Palace have been unbeaten for five games, and the pressure is also completely on the Skyblues, who can hardly defend themselves against the role of favorites.
