Since Oliver Glasner took over in the Palace dugout, the Eagles accumulated twice as many points as Manchester United over that period from late February to late May.
The Austrian led Palace to 21 points from the 13 matches he's taken charge of so far, which was enough to put them 4th in the Premier League table if only counting matches played since February.
Carrying over momentum from a previous season into a new campaign cannot be understated, especially when the South Londoners won their last three matches and went unbeaten in six to close out the campaign, including wins over West Ham, Liverpool, Manchester United, Wolves and Aston Villa.
Jean-Philippe Mateta's 13 goals since Oliver Glasner took charge was more than any other Premier League player, displaying just how important the striker became in Palace's resurgence and the kind of tune Glasner can get out of his players at Selhurst Park.
Whether it works in his favour or not remains to be seen, but Mateta had an active summer at the Olympics, picking up a silver medal after firing in five strikes in Paris as part of Thierry Henry's France U23s.
Just like the previous bet, momentum is key for early season bets. Mateta scored in his last three matches of the 2023/24 campaign, including that memorable hat-trick against Aston Villa on the final day.
