Manchester United are aiming for a fourth successive win when they host Crystal Palace in a Premier League clash this Sunday.
United picked up an impressive 2-0 win over FCSB in the Europa League on Thursday to progress to the knockouts. However, Ruben Amorim’s team is still languishing at 12 in the Premier League table.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace come into this match on the back of a 1-2 loss to London rivals Brentford. It ended their impressive five-match unbeaten run.

This game is not available for live TV broadcast or live streaming in the UK.
The match was earlier scheduled to start at 3:00 p.m. GMT on Saturday February 1. However, since it wasn’t picked by broadcasters in the initial round of selections, it will not be aired even though it has been moved to Sunday.
Sky Sports will instead broadcast Brentford vs. Tottenham and Arsenal vs. Manchester City on Sunday.
This Premier League clash takes place at the Old Trafford in Manchester, United Kingdom and kicks off on Sunday, February 2 at 2:00 p.m. local time.
Luke Shaw is close to a comeback and there is a chance he could be part of the matchday squad this weekend, although Amorim will certainly want to avoid rushing him back.
Mason Mount and Jonny Evans are still out with injury, while Marcus Rashford looks highly unlikely to be brought back into the squad even if he remains a United player by Sunday.
Having made a few changes for the game in Bucharest, Amorim will likely do so again in a bid to keep the team fresh.
Man United predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Onana (GK) — De Ligt, Maguire, Martinez — Mazraoui, Ugarte, Fernandes, Dalot — Garnacho, Amad Diallo — Zirkzee.
Injured: Shaw (undisclosed, doubt), Mount (muscle), Evans (muscle)
Suspended: None
Adam Wharton is close to a return to full training with Palace but is not yet ready for a comeback.
Matheus Franca, Cheick Doucoure and Chadi Riad are also sidelined, while veteran defender Joel Ward has a calf issue.
Romain Esse could make his first start for the club after scoring off the bench against Brentford.
Crystal Palace predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Henderson (GK) — Richards, Lacroix, Guehi —Munoz, Esse, Lerma, Mitchell — Sarr, Eze — Mateta.
Injuries: Wharton (groin), Franca (groin), Doucoure (knee), Riad (knee), Ward (calf)
Suspensions: None
United have shown some improvement in the new year and will be eager to push for another victory at Old Trafford.
On the other hand, Crystal Palace has proven to be a tough side this season and will come into the match fresher since they did not have any European commitments. Oliver Glasner’s team may earn a point against the Reds.
