Manchester United vs Crystal Palace LIVE

The race to qualify for Europe continues this afternoon as Manchester United host Crystal Palace at Old Trafford. Michael Carrick’s rejuvenated Red Devils are in fine form at the moment, and narrowly beat Everton last week to tighten their grip on fourth-place in the table, three points clear of Chelsea. Today’s results will surely shake up the order, though, as the Blues visit Arsenal in the late kick-off.

Crystal Palace, meanwhile, are in rather trying times. Performances have faded somewhat under Oliver Glasner of late, with unconvincing defeats of Zrinjski Mostar and Wolves still fresh in the memory alongside a late loss to Burnley. The Austrian has not been helped by injury headaches surrounding the likes of Jean-Philippe Mateta, Jefferson Lerma and Eddie Nketiah. This side does tend to fare well against United, though, losing just once in their last four meetings.

Carrick has some big decisions to make as he chases a rare league double over the Eagles, with Benjamin Sesko pushing for a start up top after producing a string of impressive substitute performances. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis.
