The Red Devils head to Crystal Palace for Saturday evening’s Premier League clash looking to continue their impressive return from the international break.

United have bounced back from deflating defeats to Brighton and Liverpool by swatting aside Southampton 3-0 and hammering Barnsley 7-0 in the Carabao Cup.

Rashford scored his first goal since March at St Mary’s and then hit a brace against the Tykes, lifting the confidence of a player who lost his way last season.

Erik ten Hag has made just one change to the side that beat Southampton 3-0 last time out. Alejandro Garnacho starts at left wing in place of Marcus Rashford.

There’s no place for new signing Manuel Ugarte, who stays on the bench in favour of Christian Eriksen.

Oliver Glasner has made just two changes to the side that drew 2-2 to Leicester last week. Cheick Doucouré is injured, so he comes out for Daichi Kamada, while Nathaniel Clyne drops out of defence in favour of Chris Richards.

Palace XI: Henderson; Munoz, Richards, Guehi, Lacroix, Mitchell, Wharton, Kamada , Nketiah, Eze, Mateta.

Subs: Turner, Ward, Sarr, Lerma, Schlupp, Clyne, Hughes, Umeh, Agbinone.

Man Utd XI: Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Eriksen, Mainoo; Diallo, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee.

Subs: Bayindir, Maguire, Evans, Casemiro, Mount, Ugarte, Antony, Hojlund, Rashford.

The Red Devils have bounced back from demoralising defeats to Brighton and Liverpool before the international break with a 3-0 win at Southampton and 7-0 victory against Barnsley in the Carabao Cup.

United’s attention now turns to Saturday’s Premier League trip to Selhurst Park, where Hojlund and Mount could return from lay-offs.

Crystal Palace XI: Henderson, Clyne, Guehi, Lacroix, Munoz, Wharton, Hughes, Mitchell, Nketiah, Eze, Mateta.

Manchester United XI: Onana, Dalot, De Ligt, Martinez, Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Fernandes, Garnacho, Rashford, Zirkzee

United will continue to be without Leny Yoro and Mason Mount. Both Rasmas Hojlund and Luke Shaw are working their way back to fitness and are unlikely to be chucked in, while Tyrell Malacia and Victor Lindelof are still to overcome injuries and a lack of fitness this season.

Palace have a couple of ongoing defensive issues, with Trevoh Chalobah and Chadi Riad unlikely to feature.

Chalobah shouldn’t be too far away after sustaining an abdominal injury and could return before the end of the month, while Riad is expected to miss the next couple of months with likely knee ligament damage.

Midfielder Cheick Doucoure was substituted against Leicester City last time out after two separate first-half problems in his only appearance since November 2023. He will be absent for the next few weeks, while Mateus Franca missed pre-season and is not expected to return any time soon.

Palace are yet to secure three points this season, but have begun to gain a little momentum with draws against Chelsea and Leicester City, as well a midweek win against QPR in the League Cup.

United responded well to the 3-0 drubbing against Liverpool with a victory over Southampton by the same scoreline last weekend, but currently sit completely middle of the road: in 10th place after two wins from four with a goal difference of zero. Tuesday’s 7-0 League Cup win over Barnsley was a fun distraction from the more serious business of climbing the Premier League table.

This has not been a kind fixture for the Red Devils in recent times. Palace destroyed United 4-0 in May with the type of incisive cutting football that made Oliver Glasner’s early work in charge so impressive. It’s now been four years since United have tasted victory against the Eagles in London and manager Erik ten Hag should be wary of the potential springboard his side can provide with another poor result.
