Crystal Palace vs Manchester United: live broadcast, stream link, team news

Crystal Palace welcome Manchester United to Selhurst Park on Monday as Erik ten Hag's men look to keep their European qualification hopes on track via their league place.

WATCH CRYSTAL PALACE vs MANCHESTER UNITED LIVE

Palace are in great form – unbeaten in four games and winning three of their last four – as Oliver Glasner's project has begun in recent weeks to leave the Eagles comfortably in mid-table. The return of players like Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise from injury is a huge boost and Jean-Philippe Mateta has been scoring goals for fun. Palace are aiming to finish this season well to start the summer with positive momentum and prepare for next season and Glasner's first full season as manager.

Manchester United have been hit hard by injuries all season, but that is no excuse for the overconfident performances they have put in of late. Erik ten Hag is fighting for his future as United manager and although they are in the FA Cup final against Manchester City on Saturday May 25th, a place outside the top six would be a dismal finish for this United side the league. They are unbeaten in four Premier League games but have been far from convincing as teams like Chelsea and Newcastle put pressure on United to finish fifth or sixth and qualify for the Europa League.

Palace will press United high and then rely on the quality of Eze and Olise on the ball, while Mateta is in good form and they will look to release him behind United's creaky and injury-ravaged defensive unit. Wharton has been a revelation in midfield and will look to get Palace to counter early and often.
