Our confirmed MUFC XI for the Premier League home game vs Crystal Palace is now in…
For the second time in successive games, Manchester United will host Crystal Palace at Old Trafford. After beating The Eagles 3-0 in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday, Erik ten Hag will be hoping for a similar result here.
It goes without saying, it’s far easier said than done. Both teams will likely make changes aplenty for this Premier League clash, making it a closer game.
United need to build some positive momentum. The start to the season has been supremely tough. There’s no getting away from that. However, securing a victory here would be massive for the confidence levels within the dressing room.
Anyway, the all-important team news is now in so let’s give you the full run through…

Andre Onana was always going to start between the sticks here, with the man from Cameroon no doubt expecting better from himself after a mixed start to the term.
Diogo Dalot is the only fit full-back at the club so he was always going to get the nod in his preferred position. Sofyan Amrabat looks like continuing over in the left-back position. It’ll be intriguing to see how he gets on. Raphael Varane is the most senior defender at the club and he will start in defence alongside Victor Lindelof.
Casemiro looked better in midweek and it was excellent to see him looking so sharp. Let’s keep that positive momentum flowing. Mason Mount also looked great on Tuesday so he makes a first league start since the Spurs game. Bruno Fernandes starts and captains the Red Devils.
Rasmus Hojlund is waiting for his first league goal and no doubt he’ll get the opportunity to end that wait here. To his right and left respectively is Facundo Pellistri and Marcus Rashford.
