Crystal Palace vs Manchester United Premier league Match Preview or Key Statistics
⭕Crystal Palace’s 2-1 win at Old Trafford in August ended a run of 22 top-flight games without a win against Man Utd – they’re looking to complete their first ever league double over the Red Devils.
⭕Manchester United are unbeaten in their last 11 away league games against Crystal Palace (W8 D3), since a 0-3 loss in May 1991 courtesy of goals from Ian Wright and John Salako (2).
⭕Crystal Palace have lost each of their last five Premier League games. They last lost six in a row in September 2017 (8), while manager Roy Hodgson hasn’t lost six in a row in the competition since his last three with Blackburn in November 1998 and his first three with Fulham in January 2008.
⭕Manchester United are unbeaten in five Premier League away games (W3 D2), winning each of the last two by a 3-0 scoreline. Indeed, just two of the Red Devils’ previous 52 away league games had been won by a margin of 3+ goals.
⭕Man Utd have won just one of their last five Premier League games in London (D1 L3), winning 2-0 at Chelsea in February.
⭕Manchester United have won all three of their midweek games (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) since the restart, all of them by a 3-0 scoreline (vs Sheffield United, Brighton and Aston Villa).
⭕Since the restart, only bottom two clubs Norwich (1.6%) and Aston Villa (5.2%) have a lower shot conversion rate than Crystal Palace in the Premier League (7.1%), with the Eagles netting just four of their 56 shots.
⭕Crystal Palace remain the only Premier League side yet to score more than twice in a single match this season. Meanwhile, since the restart the Eagles are conceding double the number of league goals-per-game (2.2) than they were before the enforced break (1.1).
⭕Crystal Palace have won seven of their nine Premier League games in which Jordan Ayew has scored this season, drawing the other two. Their record when he doesn’t score is W4 D7 L15 this season.
⭕Bruno Fernandes has been involved in six goals in his last four Premier League away games (5 goals, 1 assist). He could become the first Man Utd player to score in five consecutive away games in the competition since Zlatan Ibrahimovic (January 2017), and the fourth to do so overall for the Red Devils, after Ruud van Nistelrooy (twice) and Robin van Persie.
