Manchester United back in the running for European qualifying places.
Crystal Palace aims for a historic league double over Manchester United as they host the Red Devils at Selhurst Park in Monday night football, hoping to bounce back from a London Derby draw.
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace [LWWWD] failed to extend their three-game winning streak to four after last weekend’s 1-1 draw in the London Derby against Fulham. Victory over Liverpool [1-0], West Ham [5-2], and Newcastle [2-0] formed the three-game winning streak before the run was nipped in the bud by the Cottagers, who had initially taken the lead via Rodrigo Muniz [52’] before Jeffrey Schlupp [87'] came up with the leveler.
The draw leaves Palace in 14th place with 40 points [10W, 10D, & 15L] before Monday night’s clash against Man U. Having defeated the Red Devils 1-0 in the reverse fixture, Crystal Palace could pick up a league double over the visitors for the first time in club history.
Furthermore, victory on Monday night would leave the Eagles with three consecutive home wins for the first time since achieving the same feat in October 2022. The familiar 3—4—2—1 formation with Jean-Philippe Mateta, who is the club’s top scorer with 11 goals, is expected.
Mateta has contributed 33% of Palace’s 45 goals, having bagged four assists over 32 league appearances for the club this season. Although Marc Guehi is expected to make a return, Oliver Glasner will be without as many as six players, including Cheick Doucouré, for Monday’s clash. Eberechi Eze is also in doubt for this fixture.
Manchester United
Manchester United are back in the race for a top-five finish after last weekend’s 1-1 draw against relegation-threatened Burnley. The Red Devils are currently 7th, trailing the top five by six points.
An inconsistent run of form leaves the visitors with only one win in five games. Erik ten Hag is under the spotlight, sweating over the possibility of missing out on European football entirely in this tightly packed race.
Manchester United have lost four away Premier League matches in London this season, falling to Spurs, Arsenal, West Ham, and Chelsea. They could lose five such matches in the capital in a single season for the first time in club history.
Although winless in the last three away games against Palace, United picked up eight wins in their first 11 away Premier League games against the hosts. Adding to their challenges, ten players, including Anthony Martial and Luke Shaw, are ruled out for this match.
