EPL 2023: Crystal Palace vs Manchester United GW19 Best Predicted Lineup
Manchester United, the favourite as we look at the best predicted starting lineup and key details for their match vs Crystal Palace for EPL 2023.
Manchester United have just raised their game to another level after the early slow start. They have moved to the top 4 and are on equal points with Newcastle with 1 game in hand. If they win this match, they’ll move to second position with only 6 points away from the table toppers Arsenal.
They have 3 games this week and Erik Ten Haag has to strategically use his bench in this game. He also not wants to jeopardize his place on the table. Thankfully, there are no major injury concerns with them, but Varane is coming back from an injury and Casemiro is already on 4 yellow cards and is 1 card away from suspension.
With an important match coming up against table-topper Arsenal, the away game against Crystal Palace is a tricky call for the Red Devils. Whereas Anthony Martial, Wan-Bissaka, and Harry Maguire are all injured, and not available for this game.
On the other hand, Crystal Palace’s journey has been a bumpy ride so far in EPL 2022-23. Their campaign never really took off this season inspite of a few inspiring games. Patrick Vieira has been saying in almost every match that we were really good in the game, but we missed our chances by a small margin. He needs to make a few tough calls if they want to finish in the top half of the table. They are currently at the 12th position after a well-fought loss against Chelsea on Sunday.
History
The fixture has been fairly dominated by Manchester United. Crystal palace has to do something exceptionally well to change the odds in their favour.

EPL 2023: Crystal Palace vs Manchester United Predicted Lineup for Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace have improved a lot in their approach and in their playing style in the last one month. But still, there have been a few areas of concern for Patrick Vieira. Zaha has been the star performer for them with 6 goals to his name, and he has established himself as one of the finest attacking talents in the League. The Eagles have been pretty tough at the back as well in the game against Chelsea, but they need to work on their midfield which has not been consistent throughout.
Goalkeeper: Vicente Guaita
Defence: Tyrick Mitchell, Marc Guehi, Joachim Andersen, Joel Ward
Midfield: Jeffrey Schlupp, Cheick Oumar Doucouré
Attack: Eberechi Eze, Michael Olise, Jordan Ayew, Willferd Zaha
Formation: 4-2-3-1

Erik Ten Haag would love to keep his spirits high after the fabulous win over Man City last week. Man U have got a very big fixture coming up against Arsenal on the 22nd, and they would like to give rest to a few of their key players, but also they don’t want to lose points in such a fixture. With no major injury concern, Erik Ten Haag is likely to use all five subs to give the players proper rest.
Goalkeeper: David de Gea
Defence: Wan Bissaka, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, T.Malacia
Midfield: Casemiro, Fred, Bruno Fernandez, Christian Eriksen, Marcus Rashford
Attack: Anthony Martial
Formation: 4-2-3-1

While Manchester United are in form having just beaten their arch-rival, the game at Selhurst park would not be a cakewalk for them. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, have shown some good football this season, and can be dangerous during counterattacks with Zaha leading the pack.
