Crystal Palace - Manchester United (Premier League)

Crystal Palace meets Manchester United at "Selhurst Park" in London in a match of the 36th round of the Premier League. The meeting is on Saturday - May 9, 2015, and chief judge will be Michael Oliver. The odds for the game offered by the leading bookmaker bet365 are as follows: 4.75 for a home win, with a draw at 3.60 and 1.85 for the victory of the guests. In the match between the two teams played in the autumn at "Old Trafford", Juan Mata`s goal through the second half brought the victory for the "Red Devils".

Crystal Palace lost its visit to Chelsea in the last round of Premier League with 1:0. So, the Eagles recorded third straight loss in the league, which will most likely deprive them of the chance to fight for ranking in the first half of the table. Alan Pardew`s trouble comes from the fact that in these matches, Palace even failed to score in the opponent`s net. The household with Manchester United will miss the injured Jonathan Williams, Jerome Thomas, Marouane Chamakh and Frazier Campbell. After being on the bench against Chelsea, in the starting line-up of the Palace is expected to return Martin Kelly, Mile Jedinak and Glenn Murray. So, Yannick Bolasie will act in lower positions with Wilfried Zaha and Jason Puncheon. Glenn Murray again will be the only striker in the scheme of Alan Pardew for the upcoming match.

Manchester United lost surprisingly the household with West Brom in the last round. The devils fell by 1:0 and again questioned their participation in the Champions League this autumn. Similar to Crystal Palace, United also is in a series of 3 defeats in the Premier League, in which hasn`t even scored. In this regard, the experts expect to see some changes in the composition of Louis van Gaal for the forthcoming visit at "Selhurst Park". Although the missed penalty against West Brom, Robin Van Persie will start again at the top of the attack of Manchester United. Long-awaited return to the starting line-up of the devils will record the Argentinean wing Angel Di Maria. With injuries in the camp of United are Michael Carrick, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw, Rafael and Jonny Evans.

The bad shape of both teams in attack will affect their performance in the upcoming match. We expect to see cautious match between Crystal Palace and Manchester United with fewer goals at "Selhurst Park" on Saturday night.

Prediction: Under 2.5 goals @ 1.70 at bet365
