Premier League
3pm Sunday

Every team has their price but Manchester United fail to appeal despite the huge drift in their odds to defeat Crystal Palace at Old Trafford.

Jose Mourinho is focused solely on Wednesday's Europa League final against Ajax and won't be too concerned about the outcome of this game.

The match is a great opportunity for United's youngsters to announce themselves in the Premier League but they face a steep learning curve against a Palace side who are playing to finish as high as possible.

Recommendation
