I'm very optimistic about Manchester united as their recent series of wins is giving so much hopes that they are gradually improving in their play and results they get from each games recently. The wins they have gotten recently will really boost the confidence and morale of the players as to the fact that they can do even better.
The game against crystal palace will be a good opportunity for them to get some more points to keep them going in the standings of the premier league as this will give the fans too more confidence in them, if they win crystal place it will be a three consecutive wins at a time they have achieved in the past few days.
Crystal palace will be hosted by Manchester united and this could be an advantage Manchester will have over them, in their last five games they have won two lost two and drew one, this could. Be an indication that they are not very strong team but then can give Manchester united a hard time wining due to the current state of Manchester united not been at their very best.
Ten Hag was slowly able to bring United to victory in the EPL and Carabao Cup. Man United good results in the last two matches can be said to be a turning point in their performance. I think this result cannot be separated from the return of injured players, Mason Mount, Sofyan Amrabat, Varane and Maguire will have the potential to return as starters in the second meeting with Crystal Palace. Overall, it looks like Ten Hag will field the same squad as in the previous match, and will not change many things because it has proven effective in winning matches.
The front line looks like it will be filled by Hojlund, the former Atalanta striker really needs goals in the EPL because he hasn't managed to do so while in The Red Devils uniform. So I think Man United will be able to overcome Crystal Palace for the second time, especially playing at Old Trafford. Three points are very important for The Red Devils to improve their position in the standings, if they don't succeed it will clearly be a false hope for fans.
