Man City vs Crystal Palace: Premier league, Kick-off time

Manchester City start the Premier League action this afternoon with the visit of Crystal Palace, who make the trip north with a depleted squad.

A remarkable clash with Brighton produced three red cards, of which two were for Palace players, leaving Marc Guehi and Eddie Nketiah suspended for this game. There are also injury concerns over Maxence Lacroix.

City, meanwhile, need to build some momentum in the race to qualify for the Champions League, which now covers the top five in the Premier League thanks to Arsenal’s win over Real Madrid.

Palace have been somewhat of a bogey team for Pep Guardiola in recent years with City dropping points in four of their last seven meetings.

Date, kick-off time and venue:
Man City vs Crystal Palace is scheduled for a 12.30pm BST kick-off today, Saturday, April 12, 2025.
