Man U vs. Crystal Palace Preview (What To Know Before Betting)

Man U vs. Crystal Palace

After their recent encounter in the EFL Cup third round on Tuesday, Manchester United and Crystal Palace will face each other again at Old Trafford for a Premier League match this Saturday afternoon.

In their previous meeting, the Red Devils convincingly defeated the Eagles with a 3-0 scoreline. Now, they aim to finish the month strongly by securing their third consecutive victory across all competitions.

After a troubling start to September, which saw them lose three consecutive games and concede 10 goals, Manchester United has since regained their composure with two crucial wins, both without conceding a goal. They defeated Burnley in the Premier League with a hard-fought 1-0 victory last weekend, and they comfortably triumphed over Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup, thanks to goals from Alejandro Garnacho, Casemiro, and Anthony Martial, securing their spot in the fourth round.

Their next challenge in the EFL Cup will be against last season’s runners-up, Newcastle United, who surprisingly eliminated Manchester City. This exciting matchup is scheduled for the end of October.

What to remember – Man U vs. Crystal Palace

Roy Hodgson has a track record of achieving positive outcomes for Palace at Old Trafford, but securing a win on Saturday will be challenging unless they can address their recent scoring difficulties.

Manchester United is under pressure to build on their dominant performance from Tuesday. Anything less than a victory would seem like a setback for them. With the expectation of a stronger lineup from manager Ten Hag, it’s likely that the hosts will secure all three points.
