MANCHESTER UNITED
The resurgence continues since the exit of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Manchester United will be looking to officially welcome their new interim coach with a resounding victory at Old Trafford. They have just come from a thrilling 3-2 victory over Arsenal, with Bruno Fernandez finally getting his opening goal of the season.
Jadon Sancho has been playing well and looks set to become a regular in the starting 11 even under the new coach. Edison Cavani is still out with injury but Manchester United are spoilt for choice in attack, with Martial, Ahmad, Lingard, and Van De Beek all available on the bench in the game against Arsenal.
CRYSTAL PALACE
Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira is also a recent appointee and has enjoyed mixed results since he took over. They already came to Manchester a few weeks ago and took maximum points against Manchester City. However, since then Palace have managed only 1 point from a possible 9. What is more worrying is that they lost their last 2 games to late to late goals.
Crystal Palace will be buoyed by the fact that they have won at Old Trafford in the league for the past two seasons. With Manchester United still showing weakness at home despite their resurgence, the visitors will believe that they can take a positive result here. Former Manchester United winger Winfred Zaha will be leading the Crystal Palace attack and he always enjoys a good game against his former club.

OUR BETTING TIP
All indications are that Manchester United are on the rise. The 3-2 victory over Arsenal showed that their attacking football is back even though defensive problems still persist. Playing at Old Trafford in front of their new manager for the first time, the Red Devils are expected to go on an all out attack and they will definitely get the goals.
For Crystal Palace, the main focus should be on maintaining concentration until the end of the match. On their day, they are able to give any big team a run for their money. However, they have fallen short in recent games and they are a bit unlucky to be meeting Manchester United at this time. From our analysis, we expect a comfortable Manchester United win and therefore go with a handicap football betting strategy.
