Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Buoyed by a come-from-behind triumph over Arsenal, Manchester United will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they host Crystal Palace to their Old Trafford. The Red Devils have been producing fine displays under interim manager Michael Carrick, and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to win Sunday’s clash.
The Eagles, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing to both Aston Villa and Leeds United in the previous two league fixtures. Palace are low on spirits ahead of the trip to Manchester, and we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing something from the match. Edinson Cavani is a major doubt, while both Paul Pogba and Raphael Varane are sidelined with injuries. As for the away side, all Ferguson, Ward, and McArthur are out of contention through injuries.
Highlighted Player (Cristiano Ronaldo):
Cristiano Ronaldo is considered one of the world’s best football players. The Portuguese ace was born on 5 February, 1985 in Funchal, Madeira and he played for the likes of Andorinha, Nacional and Sporting during his youth career. CR7 made his Sporting debut in Primeira Liga on 7 October, 2002, scoring two goals in a 3-0 win over Moreirense.
Manchester United scouts spotted him and one year later he joined the Old Trafford outfit. Ronaldo became the most expensive teenager in the history of the Premier League and he received the number 7 shirt. He quickly established himself as the team’s key player and it has to be noted that he won three consecutive Premier League trophies with the Red Devils (2006/2007, 2007/2008, 2008/2009). In 2008 he helped the Old Trafford outfit beat Chelsea in the Champions League final, scoring for Alex Ferguson’s troops in the regular time.
Ronaldo joined Real Madrid in 2009 and he helped the Spanish giants with two Champions League trophies. In 2016 he won the European Championship trophy with Portugal. The Real Madrid ace has two Golden Ball awards (2013, 2014).
