As Crystal Palace prepare to face Manchester United on Wednesday right, let’s take a look at the projected line-up for the hosts at Selhurst Park.
Patrick Vieira’s side will aim to get a result against Erik ten Hag’s men, after tasting a 1-0 defeat against Chelsea on the weekend.
While the South Londoners had chances galore, they failed to finish their dinner, as Kepa was in imperious touch on the day.
Ahead of the contest, we expect Vieira to make two changes to the side that started against Graham Potter’s men.
Crystal Palace predicted lineup vs Manchester United
In goal, Vicente Guaita is expected to keep his place in the side, as per usual.
At right-back as well, Nathaniel Clyne is set to make the cut in our Crystal Palace predicted lineup against Manchester United.
As Joachim Andersen is set to be out of action due to a lengthy calf injury, James Tomkins, who replaced him against Chelsea is likely to start.
Alongside the Englishman is expected to be his fellow countryman, Marc Guehi, retaining his place in the side.
Despite Tyrick Mitchell not having his finest outing against the Blues, he keeps his place in our Crystal Palace predicted lineup against Manchester United.
Much like against Chelsea, the double pivot of Cheick Doucoure and Jeffrey Schlupp looks set to start on Wednesday.
On the right wing, the in-form Michael Olise, who was recently speculated with a switch to PSG is also set to start.
In the No.10 position, another undroppable member of the side in Eberechi Eze makes the cut in our Crystal Palace predicted lineup against Manchester United.
It goes without saying that Palace icon, Wilfried Zaha will keep his place in the side, despite the constantly exit links surrounding him.
However, up front is where we expect Patrick Vieira to make his second change, with £8 million man (Football.London) Jean Philippe-Mateta coming in for Jordan Ayew, as the Palace boss clearly seemed puzzled about his side’s lack of ruthlessness in front of goal (via BBC Sport).
Crystal Palace predicted lineup vs Manchester United: Guaita, Clyne, Tomkins, Guehi, Mitchell, Doucoure, Schlupp, Olise, Eze, Zaha, Mateta.
