Earlier this afternoon there were suggestions Jose Mourinho would be without top goalscorer Romelu Lukaku.
ESPN reporter Rob Dawson tweeted: “Chance Lukaku may not play today. Has apparently picked up a knock and will have a fitness test today,” Dawson tweeted.
“Not definitely out, but a doubt.”
But fear not United fans, Lukaku has passed his fitness test and leads the line today.
Mourinho has made five changes from their 4-1 win over CSKA Moscow in midweek as Antonio Valencia, Phil Jones, Maroaune Fellaini, Juan Mata and Marcus Rashford return to the starting XI.
Lukaku has netted six goals in his last five matches for United in all competitions and will be looking to add to that tally against the Eagles.
The odds are well stocked in the Belgian’s favour with Palace yet to keep a clean sheet in their opening six matches that leaves them rock bottom of the Premier League table.
United starting XI: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Smalling, Young, Matic, Fellaini, Mata, Mkhitaryan, Rashford, Lukaku.
Subs: Romero, Bailly, Blind, Darmina, Ander Herrera, Lingard, Martial.
Crystal Palace starting XI: Hennessey, Ward, Sakho, Delaney, Van Aanholt, Townsend, Milivojevic, Cabaye, Schlupp, Puncheon, Sako.
Subs: Speroni, Kelly, Riedewald, McArthur, Mutch, Lee, Ladapo.
Victory for United today would see them leapfrog Manchester City into pole position.
City face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this evening (5.30pm).
