Kick-off 3pm Saturday

A major shock could be on the cards at Old Trafford with Crystal Palace looking overpriced to topple Manchester United.

The game is Palace's fourth successive clash against a big six team following a draw at home to Arsenal (2-2) and losses away to Chelsea (1-3) and at home to Tottenham (0-1).

Roy Hodgson's side competed well in each of those games and may have better luck against United, who are back under pressure following their 3-1 loss at Manchester City before the international break.
