Manchester United came from behind to secure a vital 2-1 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
In a battle of the 3-4-3 formations Ruben Amorim’s side were second best during the opening 45 minutes as Palace asserted themselves on the match and probed a shaky looking United defence.
Leny Yoro brought down Jean-Philippe Mateta who converted the resultant penalty on the second time of asking to put Oliver Glasner’s side ahead at the break.
However, United came into the second half with more intent and aggressive. Two set pieces provided their goals as Joshua Zirkzee and then Mason Mount slotted past Dean Henderson to complete a deserved comeback.
United’s players applauded the travelling supporters after the game having jumped themselves up to sixth in the table.

Ruben Amorim wins the 3-4-2-1 battle with Palace but his system remains flawed
15:13 , Mike JonesPerhaps for the first time in his Manchester United tenure, a 3-4-2-1 worked well for Ruben Amorim. Not his own specifically; more the fact that Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner also chooses to deploy that system.
While Amorim’s iteration has been the subject of plenty of debate, Glasner’s has often been praised, but it was the Portuguese who came out as the victor this time round as United secured a 2-1 win over the Eagles courtesy of goals from Joshua Zirkzee and Mason Mount.
Ruben Amorim wins the 3-4-2-1 battle with Palace but his system remains flawed
Can Man Utd beat West Ham next?
14:39 , Mike JonesRuben Amorim said: “It’s important to win every game.
“Today was once again the proof that if you play the same way but increase the way we fight for every ball and the small details.
“If we work on that we can beat anyone and we’ll work on that in the next match.”
How important was Zirkzee's goal?
14:35 , Mike Jones“It’s so important for a striker to score goals,” Amorim continued.
“He’s not playing many minutes but the way he responded in the second half is really important.
“It’s more important than just the goal, the small details, the connections, that is important for our game and the goal is important for the team and for him.”
More from Amorim
14:31 , Mike JonesMan Utd have now scored the same amount of goals from set pieces as Arsenal.
Here’s what Amorim had to say about that: “It’s so important because it’s hard to play against every opponent.
“You can sense throw ins, free kicks, corner kicks to score a goal, open the game, and give more confidence to the team.
“If you look at the Premier League and you don’t work on set pieces you are losing the game already.”
Post match thoughts from Ruben Amorim
14:27 , Mike JonesThe Man Utd boss said: “I think we had more intensity in the second half. We played better and the opponents were more tired, so everything is connected.
“The small things, the way Josh [Zirkzee] controls the ball was different, they way we defended second balls was different, these small details make the difference.”
Zirkzee on ending goal drought
14:15 , Mike JonesJoshuas Zirkzee scored his first goal in the Premier League for 25 games and explained how that felt.
He told TNT Sports: “It’s one of the biggest clubs in the world and if you don’t score in that time, there is pressure.
“But I’m surrounded by good people supporting me, and I’m thankful for then. It’s a good environment.”
Post match reaction from Mason Mount
14:11 , Mike JonesMan Utd’s matchwinner, Mason Mount, said: “We have not found it easy away from home. We needed to bounce back after Monday’s game.
“It was about reacting in the changing room and in the second room. We did that, we were at it.
“The win for massive but also for me to play the full game. I haven’t done that in a while. I’m feeling good.”
Man Utd up to sixth
14:07 , Mike JonesWith four games still to come this afternoon Manchester United have leapfrogged Crystal Palace and now sit sixth in the Premier League.
They are still eight points behind leaders Arsenal but are only four behind Man City in second.
A strong run of results for Amorim’s men could put them in contention to secure a Champions League place next season.

This is a fabulous finish from Joshua Zirkzee who needed a goal.
A free kick is flicked into the box from Bruno Fernandes who finds Zirkzee.

Why Jean-Philippe Mateta was forced to retake penalty against Man United
'Amorim has a job to do'
12:58 , Chris WilsonReaction to that first half from Chris Wilson at Selhurst Park:
“A great half from a Palace point of view, with the hosts deservedly entering the break in the lead after Mateta’s penalty.
“Both sides have had chances in what has been a frantic match, though Palace’s opportunities have been far more clear-cut than United’s, and once again Ruben Amorim has a job to do to save a result in the Premier League.”

Half-time! Crystal Palace 1-0 Man Utd
12:50 , Mike Jones45+5 mins: There have been bright moments from Manchester United but it is clear that they’ve been the second best side.
Palace’s penalty was a clear one and they’ve been unlucky not to add to their tally.

12:48 , Mike Jones45+3 mins: A diagonal pass comes over to Nketiah who flies past De Ligt after the defender slips.

Crystal Palace 1-0 Man Utd
12:39 , Mike Jones39 mins: That goal could be a big blow to Man Utd’s fortunes.
Ruben Amorim needs more urgency from his team, especially in the final third.
Ismaila Sarr has been subbed off with Eddie Nketiah replacing him for Palace. Sarr is probably still feeling the effects of the earlier challenge from Dalot.
'No more than Palace deserve'
12:38 , Chris WilsonSome reaction from Chris Wilson at Selhurst Park:
“United got another lifeline with that re-take but Mateta was supremely confident with both of his efforts.
“Palace find themselves one up and it’s no more than they deserve after having by far the better of the chances in the first half.”

'Home fans know they're on top'
12:28 , Chris Wilson at Selhurst ParkSome reaction from Chris Wilson at Selhurst Park:
“You get the sense a Palace goal is coming and the home fans certainly know they’re on top, with the hosts beginning to knock on the door.
“It’s been a frantic opening though, with neither side able to really take control in midfield.”
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:27 , Mike Jones27 mins: Almost half an hour into this match and there’s been 11 attempts on goal.

The latest comes from Yeremy Pino. The ball is crossed in from the right and Lammens slaps it away from Mateta.
It drops to Pino who shoots but Leny Yoro lunges to make an important block!
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:25 , Mike Jones24 mins: Daichi Kamada is the latest Palace player to work the goalkeeper.
Palace weave forward down the right and square the ball to the edge of the box for the midfielder.
His low effort goes through the legs of Shaw I think, but Lammens drops low and snuffs out the chance.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:21 , Mike Jones21 mins: Palace are turning the screw slightly with their third corner in a row.
Maxence Lacroix wins the header this time but leaps away from the goal to reach the ball.
That takes a lot of pace out of the headed effort and it floats over the crossbar.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:19 , Mike Jones18 mins: Bryan Mbeumo is shown a yellow card for delaying the restart after a throw in is awarded to Crystal Palace. He flung the ball angrily into the ground to release some frustration at the decision.
At the other end of the pitch Palace win a corner which is whipped over everyone in the area and United collect the ball.
'What a chance'
12:17 , Chris Wilson at Selhurst ParkSome reaction from Chris Wilson at Selhurst Park:
“What a chance for Mateta. It’s the stuff of nightmares for United, with de Ligt’s header ricocheting off Yoro and into the path of the Frenchman, though this time he can’t find the finish.
“Palace should be 1-0 up and he knows it.”
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:16 , Mike Jones15 mins: Chance!
Mateta gets on the end of a long kick from Henderson and pushes Leny Yoro away.
He snatches at his shot though and pulls it wide of the target.

Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:11 , Mike Jones10 mins: Another chance!
This time it’s a free kick swung into the box from Bruno Fernandes.
Casemiro leaps higher than Marc Guehi and gets a glancing head to the ball.
He can’t direct it perfectly and as such the effort sails wide of the back post.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:10 , Mike Jones8 mins: Close!
A sharp transition from Palace sees a long ball flicked over to Jean-Philippe Mateta.
He dances around De Ligt then blazes a low effort at goal.
It’s a decent strike but he fizzes the ball into the side netting. Senne Lammens looked to have the near post covered but that was a fine chance for Palace.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:08 , Mike Jones7 mins: Sarrf hobbles off the pitch but looks okay to play on.
Palace play a few minutes with 10-men as Man Utd take control of the ball. They probe the left side through Dalot and Luke Shaw.
A run from Bruno Fernandes sees the United captain win a corner which he jogs over to take.
Fernandes’ delivery is lofted towards Matthijs de Ligt but Dean Henderson is there to punch the ball clear.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:05 , Mike Jones4 mins: Ismaila Sarr has an issue. He tries to get down the right side for Crystal Palace and gets tackled by a sliding Diogo Dalot.
Dalot wins the ball but Sarr tumbles over him and seemingly lands awkwardly on his right ankle.
There’s a break in play as the physios come on to see to the Palace forward.
'Almost a dream start for United'
12:03 , Chris WilsonSome reaction from Chris Wilson at Selhurst Park:
“Almost a dream start for United but what a save that is from ex-Red Devils ‘keeper Dean Henderson.
It looked a certain goal but the England international did brilliantly to smother it on his line.”
Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd
12:02 , Mike Jones1 min: A long throw from Diogo Dalot sees the ball flicked onto the far side of the box.

Almost time for kick off
11:55 , Mike JonesThe players wait in the tunnel ahead of this clash.
It’s a big one for Manchester United who are trying to overturn some poor recent results against Palace.
The hosts are favourites to win today in a 3-4-3 battle on the pitch.
Palace can jump into the top four with victory but can Amorim’s side spring a surprise?
Kick off is up next...
Palace's unbeaten run
11:50 , Mike JonesCrystal Palace are unbeaten in their last 12 Premier League home games (won six, drawn six).
Only once have they had a longer run without defeat at Selhurst Park in the top-flight (17 between February-December 1990).
Will United win away from home?
11:45 , Mike JonesMan Utd have won just one of their last 11 Premier League away games, beating Liverpool 2-1 last month.
Indeed, half of the Red Devils’ away wins under Ruben Amorim have come at the home of the reigning Premier League champions (also 2-1 v Man City in December 2024).
Solid defence
11:40 , Mike JonesOnly league leaders Arsenal (6) have conceded fewer goals than Crystal Palace (9) in the Premier League this season.
It’s the Eagles’ fewest goals conceded 12 games into a league season since 1981-82 (also 9).
Amorim on bouncing back from Everton defeat
11:37 , Mike JonesThe Man Utd boss told TNT Sports: "We improved the way we trained this week. We dropped the intensity in the last game and we tried to regain that.
“Palace play in the same system, it's going to be a man v man game. Intensity is important and we need to step up in that regard.
"It's so important to win, but the most important thing is to be competitive in every single minute. The table now doesn't matter, we are too far from the end."
London's calling
11:35 , Mike JonesMan Utd have won just three of their last 26 Premier League away games against London sides (seven draws, 16 losses).
All three of those victories came against Fulham.
Since the start of this run in April 2023, no side have lost more away games in the capital than the Red Devils (16).
A year on from Ruben Amorim’s arrival Manchester United remain stuck in a rut of their own making
11:30 , Flo CliffordUnhappy anniversary, Ruben. A year to the day since Ruben Amorim’s first game in charge of Manchester United came the latest illustration that his reign has been a faltering affair, where backward steps seem to outnumber strides forward. United’s best run under Amorim was followed by a 1-0 home defeat to 10-man Everton.
It could be described as a reality check. Amorim argued he did not need one. “These five weeks everyone is praising our evolution,” he said. “I'm always saying the same things: we are not even near what the moment we're supposed to be in this club.”
More from Richard Jolly’s inquest into Man United here:

Palace to win at home again?
11:25 , Mike JonesHaving been winless in 13 home league games against Man Utd between 1991 and 2021 (four draws, nine defeats), Crystal Palace have now won two of their last four against the Red Devils at Selhurst Park.
Oliver Glasner speaking ahead of today's match
11:21 , Mike JonesThe Crystal Palace manager told TNT Sports: “Players look really good today. Everybody is looking forward to the game.
“It's Sunday, nice weather, sold out Selhurst Park and everything is ready. Now we have to show it on the pitch.
"We need high energy levels, to play on the top level. That's not easy every third day. We will try again today and let's see."
Ruben Amorim admits he has ‘no excuses’ for Man United’s struggles
11:20 , Flo CliffordRuben Amorim has asserted that Manchester United, despite their current struggles, operate under a strict "no excuses" policy, demanding success at all times.
The Portuguese manager believes the club should occupy a healthier position in the league table, lamenting a season that has seen a faltering start follow a challenging first campaign.
United's recent form has been inconsistent, with a brief resurgence of three consecutive wins quickly overshadowed by a pair of 2-2 draws on the road, where they squandered leads against Nottingham Forest and Tottenham.
This was compounded by a disappointing 1-0 home defeat to 10-man Everton on Monday, a result that has made for a "really tough" build-up to Sunday’s trip to Crystal Palace.
Ruben Amorim admits he has ‘no excuses’ for Man United’s struggles
Can United find the net today?
11:15 , Mike JonesMan Utd have failed to score in each of their last four Premier League games against Crystal Palace – only against Blackburn (1920-1922) and Everton (1971-1973) have they ever failed to score in five consecutive league games.
Palace's recent record
11:09 , Mike JonesCrystal Palace have won three of their last four league games against Manchester United.
That is as many as they had in their previous 30 (three wins, six draws, 21 defeats).
Team news - Man Utd
10:59 , Flo CliffordTwo changes for the visitors after their humbling by 10-man Everton almost a week ago.
Diogo Dalot and Mason Mount are preferred to Noussair Mazraoui and Patrick Dorgu, who drop to the bench. That change means Amad moves further back to wing-back after being part of a makeshift front line last time out.

Ruben Amorim confirms key Manchester United trio remain absent for Crystal Palace clash
10:40 , Flo CliffordManchester United will be without Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Harry Maguire for their trip to face Crystal Palace with Ruben Amorim ruling the trio out of the clash.
Cunha suffered a knock in training ahead of the defeat to Everton, and though Amorim is optimistic he may be back for next Thursday’s game against West Ham, he will not be involved at Selhurst Park.
Maguire suffered a hamstring issue against Tottenham before the November international break and would appear to be further away from a return, along with Sesko, who suffered a knee injury in the same fixture.

Man Utd look to recover after Everton embarassment
10:15 , Flo CliffordA slap in the face from Idrissa Gueye became a kick in the teeth for Ruben Amorim. The stinging blow was not the one that brought perhaps the season’s strangest sending off. Not as Manchester United’s unbeaten run came to an abrupt, abject end. If ignominy seemed to belong to Everton when Gueye was shown the red card, theirs was a defiant glory. The team that fought each other beat the team that had no fight.
On a night of unexpected incidents, a footballer was sent off for violent conduct against a teammate and David Moyes won at Old Trafford. Some may wonder which was odder.

09:55 , Flo CliffordWill Hughes could be fit enough to be included in the squad after he was withdrawn from the first half of the defeat at Strasbourg but Borna Sosa has been ruled out.
Chris Richards, Adam Wharton and Daichi Kamada could return to the starting line-up. Marc Guehi’s withdrawal against Strasbourg was pre-planned and the captain is fit.
Matheus Cunha, Harry Maguire and Benjamin Sesko remain absent due to injury. Mason Mount could replace Joshua Zirkzee after the striker’s ineffective performance in the 1-0 defeat to Everton.

Crystal Palace v Man United
09:35 , Flo CliffordCrystal Palace look to maintain their recent run of form against Manchester United as they host Ruben Amorim’s side at Selhurst Park.
Palace have won three of their last four games against United, who have not won at Selhurst Park since 2020.
Amorim’s side suffered a setback as they lost 1-0 against 10-man Everton on Monday night, despite Idrissa Gueye’s 13th-minute red card for slapping team-mate Michael Keane.
United had been on a five-game unbeaten run before facing Everton but now risk losing back-to-back matches as they visit a Palace side are unbeaten at home in the Premier League this season.
Oliver Glasner’s side lost to Strasbourg in the Conference League in midweek but won 2-0 at Wolves last weekend to rise to fifth in the Premier League ahead of the weekend.
Good morning
09:30 , Flo CliffordHello and welcome to live coverage of Crystal Palace v Manchester United in the Premier League.
Ruben Amorim’s men are in need of a result after a damaging defeat to 10-man Everton last time out - but they’ve got their work cut out against in-form Crystal Palace.
