Manchester United hopes to overcome the midweek blues when it hosts in-form Newcastle United for a Premier League top four clash at Old Trafford on Sunday,
As for Palace, they are an extremely resolute side under Patrick Vieira and they will now look to kick on after a very tough run of fixtures to start the season as they play Wolves, Everton and Southampton after this trip to Leicester. Patson Daka is also chipping in with goals (four from four appearances) and this could be when he finally replaces Jamie Vardy in the starting lineup. Eze and Olise also provide great creativity from more central roles but Olise drops out of the lineup today as Schlupp slots forward to midfield. Vieira has plenty of attacking options on the bench but the trio of Edouard, Jordan Ayew and Zaha worked well last week and start again. For Palace, Eberechi Eze has been in fine form and was crucial in the win against Leeds, while Wilfried Zaha has scored four goals in his first seven appearances this season and continues to be Palace’s talisman. Palace’s 4-3-3 system did not work this time as they missed Michael Olise getting on the ball in midfield and Wilfried Zaha barely had a kick as the Eagles really struggled to stretch Leicester on the break. Ruined his outing with a late booking for a dive as he will now miss the trip to Leeds. James Maddison is the only positive for Leicester so far this season as he’s scored five goals and added two assists. Yes, it’s still early in the season, but there have been worrying signs all summer long as Kasper Schmeichel and Wesley Fofana left and the funds previously available to the Foxes aren’t there as the ownership has tightened the purse strings. He picked up a booking and Leicester will now be without their main man for their midweek trip to Leeds. As for Palace, they are looking for some consistency and a win at home against Leeds followed up by a draw at Leicester is a very good return from those two games. He had a great chance early in the second half which he dragged wide and his grimace said it all.

Also worthy of note is the presence of local lad, Kobby Mainoo on the bench – he looks a ridiculous talent, an all-round midfielder with beautiful balance, skill and weight of pass. Meanwhile, we should see a belter at the aforementioned – its first league fixture in six weeks. I really like what I’ve seen of him, and I’d love to see him get on the pitch for a proper stretch today. I didn’t expect the former to play today, but he did well after coming off the bench in midweek and perhaps his possession-heavy style is thought more suitable for the way Ten Hag wants his team to play in this game. Only drawback is there would probably only be six or seven of him left on the pitch by the end of the game.” “He wore every shirt from 1 to 12, in the days they meant something in terms of position, except for 11.” I think they’re all decent players, and Ben White in particular is doing a terrific job at right-back given he isn’t really one. He goes off and his mates clear the corner, but I think he’ll be fine. Villa are playing well and Bailey diddles Chilwell then crosses well from the right and Ings makes a decent flying connection, only for the keeper to tip away! The players are now being taken off with fans told there’s a “powercut”. Of course, we all want to see the game go ahead and Leeds to win (Spurs fan here) but it would asking for trouble, as well as legal minefield should the result affect the relegation battle at the end of the season.” At least that’s what I think the commentators mean by the need for a ‘level playing field’ which I would’ve assumed otherwise would be rather a given.”
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has reported no new injury concerns and may name the same team for a third straight game. Sunday's match is expected to come too soon ...
- Miguel Almiron is vying to score in three consecutive Premier League appearances for the first time. - The Magpies have scored nine goals in their last two league fixtures, compared to just eight in their opening seven. - Newcastle are vying to score at least four goals in three consecutive league matches for the first time since October 1961. That should make things more open, which might help Manchester United. - Manchester United have won five of their past six Premier League games - as many victories as in their previous 18 fixtures. But I fancy Newcastle because they have been taking the game to their opposition, and the goals have started to flow - they have scored nine in their past two matches.
