    When these sides last met in October, Wilfried Zaha and Conor Gallagher scored as Crystal Palace picked up a shock 2-0 win at the Etihad.

    Aymeric Laporte was sent off for City.

    Palace are aiming to complete a league double over City for the first time since 1987-88 in the second tier.

    Palace's only win in their last 11 home fixtures against City came in April 2015.
