After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Last year, he was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including Euro qualifying (+6.30 units), the EFL Cup (+4.47), the FA Cup (+3.07) and the Champions League (+3.05) among others.
The expert knows both of these opponents feature potent offenses, which has lead to high-scoring bouts over the last few seasons. The Villans have also let their fair share of goals into their net this season, which could result in another goal-heavy game between these rivals.
Green also notes the extra focus the Eagles will have on this match. While Aston Villa sit seventh in the Premier League table with a shot at a top-five spot, Crystal Palace are in 12th place with no chance of securing a Champions League spot for next season. That means they will be laser focused on advancing to the FA Cup final round.
