Man United will be looking to maintain their recent run of good form when they welcome Crystal Palace to Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon and here are five pre-match talking points.
Manchester United will be targeting a fourth successive win when they welcome Crystal Palace to Old Trafford in the Premier League this afternoon.
He started as the left-sided No.10 and should have given United the lead in the first half. He switched to the right-sided No.10 berth after the introduction of Alejandro Garnacho at half-time. Taking that, the short turnaround time between the two games and the travel time into account, Zirkzee could lead the line against Palace, joining forces with Garnacho and Mainoo in attack from the start for the very first time.
Amorim said United would have to "suffer" during the process of the team adapting to his methods and demands. Another win today would suggest the level of suffering is beginning to ease. Since their aforementioned defeat at Forest in October, no team in the Premier League has conceded fewer goals away from home than Palace , highlighting just how defensively assured they have been. Also a bogey team for United recently, Palace will be a tough nut to try and crack.
Matthijs de Ligt played the full 90 minutes against FCSB after failing to complete the two previous matches. However, the short turnaround time could mean that he is rested from the start and Leny Yoro replaced him.
