Match Preview

Manchester United will host Crystal Palace in a Premier League fixture at Old Trafford on March 1, 2026 GMT.

Manchester United is positioned 4th in the standings with 48 points, while Crystal Palace trails in the 13th spot with 35 points.

Manchester United has shown strength at home with 4 wins in their last 6 Premier League matches, whereas Crystal Palace has struggled on the road, facing a 50% loss rate in their recent 6 away fixtures.

In historical head-to-head encounters in the Premier League, Manchester United has dominated with a 56% win rate against Crystal Palace.

With the home advantage and a favorable track record against their opponents, Manchester United will aim to secure a victory in this match.

Model Prediction: Manchester United to win by 2-0.

Manchester United's performances are gradually getting worse under Michael Carrick but results remain good after they made it 16 points from a possible 18 with the win at Everton.

The Red Devils are in a real battle to qualify for the Champions League but they're now as close to third-place Aston Villa as they are to Liverpool in sixth.

Crystal Palace have enjoyed a positive week after following up the Wolves win, which virtually secured their Premier League status, with Conference League progression.

The Eagles have won their last two trips to Old Trafford and four of the last seven meetings here since August 2019.
