Manchester United will lock horns with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday as they try to end the campaign on a high by picking up all three points on the road. The Red Devils suffered a humiliating 4-0 loss at the hands of Brighton and Hove Albion in their last league outing which won’t do their confidence any good ahead of this match.
Ralf Rangnick could set his side up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to make a couple of changes to his first-team for this game. Both Harry Maguire and Fred could play from the start as Rangnick looks to find the winning formula this weekend.
4-2-3-1 Manchester United Predicted Lineup To Face Crystal Palace
Defence
David de Gea will operate in between the sticks for the Mancunian outfit despite shipping in four goals in his last appearance. As mentioned earlier, Harry Maguire will probably start along with Raphael Varane at the centre of Man United’s backline as they try to keep things solid at the back throughout the game.
Diogo Dalot will keep his place at right-back while Alex Telles looks to catch the eye as the left-back. Both of them will have to pick and choose their moments to join in on the attack if they are to stop the Palace wide players from causing problems this Sunday.

Midfield
Fred and Scott McTominay will act as the holding midfielders for the Red Devils as they focus on making life difficult for the opposition at the centre of the park.
Bruno Fernandes could get a start as a left-winger while Anthony Elanga hopes to put his pace to good use on the right flank. Juan Mata will function as a free-flowing, attacking midfielder. The Spaniard’s main job would be to facilitate some decent chances for his teammates in the final third.
Attack
Cristiano Ronaldo will lead the charge for the Mancunian giants up top. The Portuguese striker will be desperate to get his name on the scoresheet and give the travelling Man United fans something to cheer about on this final day of this Premier League campaign.
