Did you know?

Crystal Palace will be buoyed by the fact that Manchester City have conceded the opening goal in their last two Premier League matches, more than they had in their previous 23, while the Eagles scored first against Leicester City on Monday before eventually losing 2-1.

With 10 goals so far, Wilfried Zaha is one away from his best ever total in a PL season. He is just the second player to reach double figures in two separate PL campaigns for Palace, after Luka Milivojevic.

Man City can equal the Premier League record of 11 straight away wins, jointly held by Chelsea and City themselves after their respective runs between April-December 2008 and May-December 2017.

Raheem Sterling has been involved in seven goals in his last seven PL starts against Palace, scoring six and providing one assist.
