It may be stretching things a little to describe Crystal Palace as Manchester City’s bogey team but Pep Guardiola will be wary of the threat they pose. Palace are one of only two teams to have beaten City in the league this season – Tottenham snatching a double over the champions – and have picked up eight points against Guardiola’s side from their past eight meetings. Patrick Vieira’s side are also in good form with just one defeat in eight but they will need to lift their levels even higher against a City team that have taken 35 from a possible 42 points on their travels this season.
