Yahoo Finance Man City vs Crystal Palace live stream: How to watch Premier League fixture online and on TV tonight
Crystal Palace are looking for just a second win in nine matches in all competitions, as they head to Manchester City on Sunday evening. The task would be difficult at the best of times, but while Roy Hodgson’s team are out-of-form of late, City have just embarked on their most impressive run of the season.
Palace were knocked out of the FA Cup by Wolves last weekend, before a more resilient showing in a midweek 0-0 draw with Arsenal. Eberechi Eze and Cheikhou Kouyate impressed in that performance, but the full line-up will have to be on top form to keep City at bay.
