Crystal Palace vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

 by Joseph King in Premier League Predictions

Matchday five in the English Premier League sees 16th-place Crystal Palace playing host to 10th-placed Manchester United for this Thursday evening kickoff at Selhurst Park. Let’s dive into the key match statistics and offer a prediction for this clash between the Eagles and the Red Devils.

Neither side will be too pleased with their respective starts to the 2024/25 Premier League season. Manchester United have already been dealt two defeats in four games to put them on six points. Palace, meanwhile, have yet to register a win with two draws and two defeats seeing them near the relegation zone in the early days.

The full three points would be a massive boost for both teams as they each look to jump-start their seasons. Will Manchester United be able to carry over their hot goal scoring form after blasting seven by Barnsley in midweek? Or will Crystal Palace be able to successfully frustrate the visitors and earn a result as underdogs on their home pitch?

Crystal Palace - Manchester United: Form Analysis

After losing their first two matches of the new season, Crystal Palace have started to pick up some momentum in recent weeks. A pair of Premier League draws sandwiched in between a pair of Carabao Cup victories means that the Eagles are now on a four-game unbeaten run.

Their most recent outing came in the Carabao Cup third round where Palace defeated Championship side QPR 2-1 as the visiting team. 

Crystal Palace’s home outings in the Premier League have so far been marred by wasteful finishing. In their two league fixtures at Selhurst Park, Palace have generated six clear cut scoring opportunities, yet have just two goals to show for it. They’ll have to be more clinical if they are to upset the odds and deal Manchester United their third defeat of the season.

The Red Devils have now scored a combined 10 goals in their last two matches.

It was seventh heaven for Manchester United in their midweek Carabao Cup fixture as they stormed to a 7-0 home win over League One side Barnsley. With a 3-0 win over Southampton in the Premier League last weekend, the visitors are in fine goalscoring form.

It’s a good response by a side that fell to a humiliating 3-0 home loss to rivals Liverpool two weeks prior. Fans will hope that these two results will provide the team with enough momentum to overturn their early season struggles in front of goal. Manchester United have scored one goal or fewer in three of their four league fixtures so far.

Crystal Palace & Manchester United Squad Analysis

Summer signing Trevor Chaloboh is still recovering from an injury and could have to wait another week or two to make his debut in a Crystal Palace shirt.

Matheus França (broken rib), Chadi Riad (knee)  are all likely to miss out for the hosts as well in this match. Rob Holding, who appears to have fallen out with the club, is training individually and likely will not feature for Crystal Palace again.

Manchester United are still without Rasmus Hojlund who has yet to feature for the visitors this season.

The good news is that the Dane has returned to training ahead of this fixture, although it could be too soon for a return. That could lead to Manchester United continuing with summer signing Joshua Zirkzee up top. However, Marcus Rashford will surely be pushing to continue as the number nine following his midweek brace.

In addition to Hojlund, Mason Mount has also returned to training. The players officially ruled out for Erik ten Hag’s side are Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Victor Lindelof and  Leny Yoro.

Our Crystal Palace vs Manchester United Prediction

Manchester United haven’t had much luck in their recent trips to Selhurst Park. They come into this match in fine goalscoring form, but an away match against Crystal Palace is a much trickier prospect than Barnsley at home.

Crystal Palace have been perhaps somewhat unfortunate to now have a win on the board after decent home performances against West Ham and Leicester. They were able to grab some victories in the Carabao Cup, which should give them a much-needed confidence boost. Our Crystal Palace vs Manchester United prediction: Crystal Palace double chance.
