Crystal Palace will host Manchester City in the Premier League on Monday, March 14. City are currently leading the league table with 69 points, while Palace are 11th with 33 points. Ahead of the game, BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction.
Patrick Vieira is doing a great job at Crystal Palace. They are good to watch going forward too, with plenty of width, and he has changed the formation and mentality of the team since taking over from Roy Hodgson - the focus before was being difficult to beat, but now it is on their attacking play. The Eagles beat Manchester City at Etihad Stadium earlier in the season and I am sure they will have another good go at City on Monday evening. I still fancy City to come out on top, though. We saw in the Manchester derby how good they can be and I'd be surprised if their levels dropped here. They know they have got Liverpool breathing down their necks.Lawrenson's prediction: 0-3
