One game in the English Premier League is going to happen on Wednesday night and that is going to be between Crystal Palace and Manchester United. After 18 games played, Crystal Palace has 6 wins, 4 draws, 8 losses, a total of 22 points and the 12th place in the standings while United has 12 wins, 2 draws, 4 losses, a total of 38 points and the 4th place. In this game, I'm predicting that Manchester is going to win.

Since the restart of the season, Crystal Palace hasn't played very well. The team got 2 red cards and lost at home against Fulham which was followed by a win on the road against Bournemouth. In front of their fans, Crystal Palace got smashed by Tottenham (0:4), then the team lost to Southampton in the FA cup and over the weekend, Crystal Palace lost on the road to Chelsea. Crystal Palace's performance at home has been shaky with just 4 wins in 9 games. At home, the team has the 11th-best xG (1.54) while xGA is the 7th-worst (1.65).

Manchester United has been phenomenal. If we don't count the friendly games during the break, United has won 9 games in a row in all competitions! The most impressive victory, of course, was the last one against Manchester City. The team was down by 0:1, but came back, scored 2 goals in 4 minutes and got a 2:1 victory. On the road, United has won 5 games out of 9. United has the 4th-best xG away from home (1.67) and 8th-best xGA (1.58).

Crystal Palace has won 4 games at home but all of them have been against teams that aren't very high in standings - Aston Villa (11th), Leeds (15th), Wolverhampton (16th) and Southampton (20th). All of the losses were against good teams - Arsenal (1st), Chelsea (10th), Fulham (6th) and Tottenham (5th). United has lost to City (2nd) and Brentford (8th), as well as to Aston Villa. Marcus Rashford has been the main anchor for United because he has scored 8 goals in the last 7 games.

Unite has won 4 out of the last 6 games played on Crystal Palace's pitch. Manchester's team has been playing very great and with a win, the team will be in 2nd place for at least a day. While Arsenal is 9 points away, the battle for 2nd place is going to be very interesting. Yes, United will play against Arsenal this week but Manchester can't allow losing points if they want to continue to keep the title dreams alive.

周三晚上将有一场英超比赛，水晶宫对阵曼联。经过18场比赛，水晶宫6胜4平8负，积22分，排名积分榜第12位;曼联12胜2平4负，积38分，排名积分榜第4位。在这场比赛中，我预测曼彻斯特队会赢。

自从赛季重新开始，水晶宫踢得并不好。球队吃了2张红牌，在主场输给富勒姆，随后在客场战胜伯恩茅斯。在他们的球迷面前，水晶宫被热刺(0:4)击败，然后在足总杯中输给了南安普顿，周末，水晶宫在客场输给了切尔西。水晶宫在主场的表现不稳定，9场比赛只赢了4场。在主场，xG(1.54)排名第11,xGA(1.65)排名第7。

曼联是现象级的。如果不算休息期间的友谊赛，曼联已经在各项赛事中取得了9连胜!最令人印象深刻的胜利，当然是最后一场对曼城的比赛。球队0:1落后，但在4分钟内连进2球，以2:1的比分获胜。在客场，曼联已经赢了9场比赛中的5场。曼联拥有第4好的客场xG(1.67)和第8好的xGA(1.58)。

水晶宫在主场赢了4场比赛，但所有的对手都不是排名很高的球队——阿斯顿维拉(11)，利兹联(15)，狼队(16)和南安普顿(20)。所有的输球对手都是强队——阿森纳(第1名)，切尔西(第10名)，富勒姆(第6名)和热刺(第5名)。曼联已经输给了曼城(第2名)和布伦特福德(第8名)，以及阿斯顿维拉。拉什福德是曼联的主力，因为他在过去7场比赛中打进8球。

曼联在水晶宫球场最近6场比赛中赢了4场。曼彻斯特的球队踢得非常好，如果赢了，球队将至少在一天内排名第二。虽然阿森纳还差9分，但是第二名的争夺将会非常有趣。是的，曼联将在本周对阵阿森纳，但是如果曼彻斯特想继续保持冠军梦想，他们就不能让失分。
