Crystal Palace vs Manchester United Preview

The 96th minute goal conceded at Southampton could have major ramifications on United's season with the side now behind Leicester on goal difference in the race for the Champions League.

That game at St Mary's saw United score twice and continued the trend of Solskjaer's men have been strong in the final third, netting at least two goals in each of their last five league games.

Palace have scored in just one of their last five matches, during which time they have conceded 13 times, and so there should be plenty of interest in backing the visitors to get among the goals at Selhurst Park.

United will be highly motivated to get back to winning ways and will surely be able to continue their impressive scoring run against a side that is badly out of form and with little to play for.

The visitors can be backed at 4/9 (1.44) to score over 1.5 goals once more, but for higher odds backing them to net in both halves at evens (2.00) is an attractive option. 

Odds correct at the time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.
