Crystal Palace vs Manchester United: Match Preview
Match Schedule: Sunday, September 22nd, 1:30 AM (Korea Time) / Salhurst Park
Gosu Sports match prediction: Crystal Palace to win
Crystal Palace’s Recent Form
The 2023/24 Premier League 5th round match between Crystal Palace FC (Palace) and Manchester United FC (Man Utd) will start at 1:30am on September 22nd. The game will be played at Salhurst Park, Crystal Palace’s home stadium.
Palace are in a good mood at the moment. In the most recent away game against Queens Park Rangers, they won 1-2 and managed to progress to the next round. Palace, who won 4-0 against Norwich City in the second round, are cruising in the League Cup.
The atmosphere in the league is not bad either. They lost in the first and second rounds, but went away to Chelsea in the third round and drew 1-1. It’s good to break the losing streak, but Palace will be looking for a win in this game as they are yet to win.
The positive is that Palace are unbeaten in their last four meetings at home against Manchester United. Therefore, Palace will want to continue this good record in this game played at home.
Manchester United’s Recent Form
Manchester United scored an astonishing 7 goals in their latest match against Barnsley in the 3rd round of the League Cup, scoring a resounding victory. Marcus Rashford, who played as a front row attacker, and wingers Alejandro Garnacho and Anthony scored on either side of the team, and the offensive line all performed well.
The atmosphere in the league is also good. Manchester United, who had been on a two game run after losing to Brighton and Liverpool, managed to turn things around by winning 0-3 against Southampton in the latest game.
Manuel Ugarte, who was recruited this season, also showed a good performance as a starter against Barnsley, so he is expected to make his first start in the league. Attention is focused on whether the good performance against Barnsley can be shown in the league as well.
Match Prediction
Although Manchester United are in good spirits at the moment with a big win, they have not performed well in recent away games against Palace and are winless in the last four meetings at Salhurst Park, so it is expected that the home team Palace will win this match.
