Manchester United is set to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday, with the goal of securing a Premier League victory after recent results; they currently sit two points behind the fifth-placed Eagles in the league table.
Crystal Palace will host Manchester United at Selhurst Park, a venue where the Eagles have secured two wins and four draws in their six home league matches this season.
Conversely, Manchester United has struggled on the road, managing only one victory in their six away Premier League fixtures. Although Palace has been dominant in recent history, winning three of the last four Premier League encounters between the sides, the corresponding fixture in September 2024 ended in a goalless 0-0 draw.
The Premier League match between Crystal Palace VS Manchester United, scheduled for 5:30 PM IST in India, will be broadcast live on the Star Sports Network channels on television. For live streaming, fans can watch the game on the Disney+ Hotstar application and website, though a subscription is required to access the content.
