No doubt still buzzing from their comeback win in Saturday's Manchester derby at Old Trafford, Manchester United hit the road as they chase a sixth successive Premier League win (and a 10th in all competitions). Title contenders? They might just be.
Crystal Palace, by contrast, have lost their last three in league and cup; Patrick Vieira's Eagles are far from flying at the moment and have conceded seven goals without reply in their last two home league outings.
Vieira has an almost full Palace squad at his disposal, with defender Nathan Ferguson and midfielder James McArthur the only injury asbentees.
United remain without the injured Diogo Dalot, while Donny van de Beek is out for the season after having knee surgery; Jadon Sancho is back in training, but this match comes too soon for him.
Form
Currently fourth, United will move up to second with a win here (at least for 24 hours, with Manchester City playing Tottenham on Thursday). They've won three, drawn one and lost one (3-1 at Aston Villa in November) of their last five away Premier League games.
Palace aren't in relegation trouble yet and won't be expected to stop the rot against one of the form teams in the league – but they'll want to improve on their last two home outings: a 3-0 loss to Fulham, which they finished with nine men, and a 4-0 drubbing by Spurs.
Referee
John Brooks will be the referee for Crystal Palace vs Manchester United.
Stadium
Crystal Palace vs Manchester United will be played at 25,456-capacity Selhurst Park in London.
In the US, kick-off time is 3pm ET / 12pm PT. The match will be shown onPeacock Premium in the US. See below for international broadcast options.
VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there.For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
