Last season Crystal Palace got off to a good start in the FA Cup, where they knocked out Millwall (2:1), Hartlepool United (2:0) and Stoke City in turn. After such a start, the team left Everton out of work (4:0), after which they lost to Chelsea in the semi-finals. In the Premier League championship, the Eagles have 11 wins and 15 peaceful outcomes after 38 rounds, which brought 48 points and 12th place in the standings. The team played well in attack, where they scored 50 times. After a draw with Aston Villa (1:1), today’s hosts could not cope with Everton (2:3) on the road and ended the tournament with a successful match with Manchester United (1:0). In the last control match, the “glaziers” defeated “Montpellier” (4:2). Of the team’s newcomers, it is impossible not to mention the move to London of Chris Richards from Bayern for 12 million euros and Ducoure from Lens. Management paid 22.6 million for the holding midfielder. Butland, Johnson, MacArthur and Olise, who has a leg injury, will not be able to play today.
Bayern Munich won the German Super Cup for the tenth time the day before, defeating Leipzig in a crazy game with a score of 5:3. In that match, the club’s newcomers were able to prove themselves, in particular, Sadio Mane scored a goal. Bayern had no visible competition last season in the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund were eight points behind in the title race. The club’s main signings this summer were Mane, De Ligt, Tel, Gravenbirch and Mazraoui. Of the losses, we highlight the departure of Lewandowski, Zule, Tolisso, as well as Chris and Omar Richards. More accurate football predictions for today can be obtained from the link provided.
