Under Oliver Glasner, The Eagles have flown clear of relegation worries. They have hit the magical 40 points mark and risen to 14th in the table. They are also are on a great run of form that includes a victory over Liverpool last month. 

The same cannot be said of the visitors. Their most recent match produced a 1-1 draw with Burnley, hardly a great result. There has been little letup in the Red Devils’ injury woes, leaving them with a very under-strength defence. Jefferson Lerma remains out but Marc Guehi makes it to the bench for the hosts, who will also be relieved that Eberechi Eze is fit to start after some doubts.

The pressure on manager Erik ten Hag is intense. He has had to hit out at speculation that much of his squad is up for sale in the summer, not really ideal preparation for a big Premier League game. They do though now have a chance of pushing up the table after Spurs' slip-up against Liverpool yesterday

Here's how they line up:

Crystal Palace: Henderson, Clyne, Andersen, Richards, Mitchell, Hughes, Wharton, Munoz, Eze, Olise, Mateta

Man Utd: Onana, Wan-Bissaka, Casemiro, Evans, Dalot, Mainoo, Eriksen, Antony, Mount, Garnacho, Hojlund

It was the Eagles, then led by Roy Hodgson, who won the reverse fixture, claiming a 0-1 victory at Old Trafford at the end of September. The ramifications could be significant if such a result were to be repeated.
