The international break came at a good time for Manchester United after losing the Manchester derby 3-1, which ended a run of three straight away matches in all competitions. This is their first match at Old Trafford in almost a month. Good time for win. Crystal Palace will be hoping to take advantage of that, but The Eagles aren’t exactly in the best shape right now. Their defeat to Spurs last time out made it 7 league games without a win for them, and they have lost 5 of those games. Prior victories over Fulham and Huddersfield mean they remain outside the relegation zone, but at this rate they won’t stay there for long. Palace’s record against Manchester United is absolutely awful too. They have never won a Premier League match against Manchester United, losing 15 of their 18 attempts. The Eagles have also lost 11 trips to Old Trafford on the bounce and come into this game having lost 3 league away games. I think that the MU will confidently achieve victory, despite the absence of the French duet Pogba and Martial
I believe in victory this weekend. United had a good series of matches except the game with the City. However, the game is also terrible. I hope Martial and Pogba have recovered from injuries and are ready to play. At the time of Sir Alex and Eric Cantona from Crystal Palace nothing would have been left on Old Trafford. Waiting for an attacking game and a lot of goals. I have seen improvement in performance and I still think the Red Devils win roll over CP.
Manchester United need to be corrected for the loss from the City. Statistics indicate the victory of the hosts.
- MU are undefeated in their last 15 matches against Crystal Palace in all competitions. - MU have kept a clean sheet in their last 5 home matches against Crystal Palace in all competitions. - MU have never lost a Premier League match against Palace home or away. - Crystal Palace have lost 5 of their last 6 matches.
I'm worried about a lot of injuries in an attack group MU, but KP also has a large group of injured.
Crystal Palace have not won any of their past seven games in all competitions, and have managed just four goals in that spell too.
So this is simply a game that Manchester United have to win - can you imagine the furore from their fans if they don't?
It is one thing for United to be out-played and beaten by a team as good as Manchester City, which is what happened in the derby last time out, but it will not be acceptable if they slip up here.
