Confirmed line-ups: Manchester United vs Crystal Palace (Premier League)

Marcel Sabitzer is on the bench for Manchester United as Crystal Palace are welcomed to Old Trafford in the Premier League.

The fixture sees Manchester United return to Premier League action after three domestic cup matches in a row, defeating Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup semi-final and Reading in the FA Cup fourth round.

Speaking on new signing Marcel Sabitzer, Erik ten Hag said that Sabitzer is looking “very good” from a tactical and fitness perspective ahead of his debut.

“Of course, he did only one (training) session, but you can see he’s a very fit player,” Ten Hag said on Friday afternoon. “I didn’t have a different expectation. He’s coming from Bayern Munich, German (clubs) they are always (about) fitness, (it’s) always good. So, he is (fit). So, I think he is ready to play.”

“I think he’s a really smart player, I think we gave him some guidance, but I think he knows what to do, he knows the job.”
