Crystal Palace vs Man City Preview and Betting Tips
Newcastle, Bologna and Harry Kane all ended long trophy droughts this season. Crystal Palace are on a 34-year drought themselves. Could Palace add to the list of droughts ended this season? Their opposition for this one will certainly have some say in stopping that, Man City are six time winners of the competition and certainly could do with picking up the trophy this year.
This looks a fascinating final and the atmosphere is certain to be incredible if the Crystal Palace fans replicate their showing from the semi-final.

Crystal Palace vs Man City
17th May
kick off 16:30 Maxence Lacroix To Commit 1+ Fouls
Crystal Palace defender Maxence Lacroix has featured in 4 of Crystal Palace’s 5 FA Cup games this season, committing the joint-highest number of fouls in this competition for the Eagles alongside Daichi Kamada and Eddie Nketiah.
The French defender has 5 fouls against his name in this competition, which makes for an average of 1.25 fouls per game. Lacroix, who has picked up 1 yellow card in the FA Cup this season, goes up against a very talented Manchester City attack in the FA Cup final this weekend, one which is packed with players that know how to win fouls from the opposition.
We’re backing Lacroix to commit 1+ fouls against Man City on Saturday which is on trend for the defender in the FA Cup this season.
Jack Grealish To Be Fouled 2+ TimesJack Grealish is Manchester City’s most fouled player in the FA Cup this season with the England international featuring in all 5 rounds of the competition so far. The 29-year-old midfielder has drawn 12 fouls in this season’s FA Cup, which makes for an average of 2.40 fouls won per game.
We’re expecting Grealish play some part in the final after starting 4 and coming on as a substitute in 1 of the club’s 5 matches in this illustrious competition so far this season. Grealish is renowned for his ability to draw fouls from opposition players. The midfielder has a quick turn of pace and has the ability to move the ball from one foot to the other, causing his opponent to commit a foul.
Ismaila Sarr To Have 2+ ShotsNo Crystal Palace player has taken more shots in the FA Cup this season than Ismaila Sarr. The Senegal international has featured in 4 of the Eagles’ 5 FA Cup ties on route to the final, taking a total of 10 shots along the way.
Sarr is averaging 2.50 shots per game in the world’s oldest football competition, with 4 of those efforts landing on target and 3 ending up as goals. The 27-year-old midfielder joint-top scores for the Eagles in the FA Cup this season and boasts a shots on target ratio of 40%.
We only need Sarr to take 2+ shots in Saturday’s final against Manchester City and it doesn’t matter whether they hit the target or not.
Omar Marmoush To Have 1+ Shots On TargetOmar Marmoush has featured 3 times in the FA Cup for Manchester City this season, and we’re expecting the Egyptian international to feature against Crystal Palace in the final on Saturday.
Marmoush has taken 11 shots during his 3 appearances and only Ilkay Gundogan has taken more shots for City in the FA Cup this season. The 26-year-old forward has seen 6 of his 11 efforts land on target and we’re backing him to test the Crystal Palace goalkeeper at least once this weekend.
The former Eintracht Frankfurt forward boasts a shots on target ratio of 54.5% in the FA Cup so far this season, where he is averaging 2.70 shots on target per 90 minutes
