Manchester United take on Crystal Palace in Premier League action.

Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce

Manchester United are likely to go into this tie with one, if not two eyes, on their all-important Europa League final against Ajax. Jose Mourinho has been quite public in his annoyance at the fixtures scheduling (on a Sunday) and has made it clear that the club’s focus is totally on winning that European trophy, this securing a place in next years Champions League.

United are likely to blood a number of young players in this game, risking a potential lack of momentum to take into the Europa League final. Jose Mourinho will be keen to shelter many of his top players from potential injury, and this may well be taken advantage of by Crystal Palace.

The Eagles will look to finish the season as strongly as possible after an excellent turnaround under the former England manager, Sam Allardyce. A specialist in saving clubs who look destined for the drop; Sam Allardyce has again proved what an excellent manager he is at this level.

Crystal Palace will likely field a full strength side, to fully take advantage of Jose Mourinho’s prioritisation of the Europa League, to secure a great ending to what has ended up being a good season for The Eagles.
