Prediction: 2-2
Crystal Palace
Manchester City and Crystal Palace take on each other at Etihad Stadium in the opening match of round 32. The Citizens played out a boring goalless draw with Manchester United at the weekend, but they are seen as favourites to beat the Eagles on home soil. In Erling Haland’s absence, January signing Omar Marmoush will continue leading the line for the hosts, while defensive trio Ake – Stones – Akanji remains in the recovery room.
The capital club, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Brighton and given their fine record at Etihad Stadium, we predict that the visitors are going to grab something from Friday’s clash. In their last meeting in the blue part of Manchester, the two sides played out a 2-2 draw and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Forward Eddie Nketiah serves a one-game ban for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Mateo Kovacic):
Born to Croatian parents in Linz, Austria, Mateo Kovacic spent seven years in the LASK Linz youth academy before joining Dinamo Zagreb, where he showed a great deal of potential shortly after being promoted to the senior squad.
The good return of 7 goals in 43 league appearances saw him secure a high-profile move to Inter Milan, where he acted as both holding midfielder and attacking midfielder, during the three years at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. And despite not exactly impressing in Italy, Kovacic was purchased by mighty Real Madrid, where he has been ever since. The youngster is widely regarded as one of Croatia’s most talented footballers at the moment and he has represented the country on international stage since the age of 19.
In just three years he managed to make over 25 appearances for the national team, playing at the 2014 World Cup and Euro 2016 finals for Vatreni. Kovavic has yet to be given a real chance to impress at Real Madrid, but he has entire future ahead of him.
