Manchester United will look to continue their outstanding run of form when they face Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

Erik ten Hag's side came from behind to beat Manchester City on Saturday and now find themselves going for a 10th consecutive win in all competitions. The Red Devils will go second in the table if they can find a way to win in south London.

Palace come into it in completely different form. Patrick Vieira has seen his side lose five of their last six games in all competitions, as well exiting the Carabao Cup on penalties after drawing with Newcastle. They are not in immediate danger of relegation but will be if this form continues.

Crystal Palace vs Man Utd score prediction

The biggest thing that Erik ten Hag has changed for Manchester United is going into what would be considered more favourable games like this and getting the job done without too much trouble.

United teams over the last 10 years have always been capable of unexpectedly pulling it out of the bag against the like of Manchester City and Liverpool, but been let down otherwise.

This Palace side isn't in the kind of form that makes them likely to cause a shock.

Prediction: Crystal Palace 0-2 Man Utd
