Manchester United will look to carry forward their Cup momentum into the Premier League when they take on Crystal Palace. The Saturday evening contest at Old Trafford will be heavily in favour of United for obvious reasons. Erik ten Hag’s side are in the middle of a brilliant run in all competitions. Besides, they have eased past Nottingham Forest over two legs to reach the final of the EFL Cup. Add to it, Man United have won their last 12 matches at Old Trafford across all competitions.

It is not long before when these two sides played each other in the Premier League. In that match last month, Crystal Palace scored a late equaliser to break the hearts of Manchester United supporters. It also brought an end to United’s brilliant winning run. Therefore, the Red Devils will be eager to get revenge on Palace when these two sides take on each other at Old Trafford on Saturday. However, they will be fully aware of the difficult test awaiting them at the weekend.

If Premier League form is taken into account, then both teams will be entering this game on a winless run. Manchester United did not win their last two league games, while Crystal Palace are on a four-game winless run. Overall, United have 39 points from 20 games to be placed third in the standings and Palace are sitting 12th in the table with 24 points from 20 matches. It will be interesting to see which team ends their winless run on Saturday.

Possible Lineups

There are some big names who will be absent for both teams in this contest. Manchester United’s main concern would be in the middle of the park. Their star midfielder Christian Eriksen is out at least until April in a big blow to the club. He will be joined on the sidelines by Scott McTominay and Donny van de Beek. However, new January recruit Marcel Sabitzer could be in line to make his debut for the club.

Sabitzer, who switched from Bayern Munich on a deadline-day loan move, might even start on Saturday if ten Hag feels he is ready. Jadon Sancho could also get more game time, however, Diogo Dalot might very well sit out this one. Meanwhile, former United winger Wilfried Zaha will be missed by Crystal Palace for a good number of weeks. He will be joined on the sidelines by Nathan Ferguson and James McArthur. On a positive front though Joachim Andersen could be in line for a comeback.

Manchester United possible line-up: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Fred, Fernandes, Antony, Rashford, Martial

Crystal Palace possible line-up: Guaita, Clyne, Richards, Guehi, Mitchell, Doucoure, Schlupp, Eze, Olise, Ayew, Edouard
