Man Utd v Crystal Palace,
The juxtaposition in budgetary allowance between these two managers could not be more extreme, with one manager being allowed to spend obscene amounts without the help of Champions League revenue or even the prospect of doing well in the league while the other scrapes along, surviving off cast-offs and loans much of the time. Despite the fact United spent in excess of £150m over the summer there is a four-point gap between them and Palace before this game, and after Leicester there is no guarantee that’ll come down by the end of the day.
Manchester United must make do without Marcos Rojo, Phil Jones, Jonny Evans, Rafael and Chris Smalling, along with injured loan star Radamel Falcao. Palace are missing Mile Jedinak and Wilfried Zaha is ineligible against his parent club.
