Manchester United aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Everton and with Crystal Palace having their ups and downs of late, we predict a 1-0 win for the home side. The Red Devils have been showing signs of improvement under Michael Carrick, with the team climbing to the Champions League berth. Their expected goals of 1.97 at home are probably the main reason why home win should be considered. Important forward Bryan Mbeumo should recover in time to face the Eagles.
The capital club, on the other hand, defeated rock-bottom Wolverhampton 1-0 at the weekend to retain 13th place in the standings. Palace aim to keep on climbing the table, but with Man Utd finding their best form of late, away win should not be considered. The fact that the Eagles have been scoring only 0.83 goals per away game of late definitely supports our betting angle. The likes of Jefferson Lerma, Jean-Phillippe Mateta, Edward Nketiah, and Cheikh Doucoure remain in the treatment room, boosting the chances of our tip landing.
As Man Utd have been in a much better form of late than Crystal Palace, we predict Home Win, with additional value on Under 3.5 goals and Under 2.5 goals as there have been 2 or fewer goals in three of their last four encounters in the Premier League.
This Premier League match will be played on Sunday 1 March 2026 at 14:00.
