United on the break are frightening - Paul Pogba starts it off by setting Alexis Sanchez free, but the Chilean is hacked down 25 yards out by Martin Kelly.

The Palace man is booked and United have a free-kick in a good position.

A promising move from Palace, working the ball well across the pitch but it ends with defender Joel Ward plonking a cross into the side netting.

Arsenal are leading Bournemouth 2-1 at half time, which means United will stay fifth, a point behind the Gunners.

Inches from an immediate equaliser.

Palace burst forward from kick-off and Andros Townsend plays a beauty of a cross into the box.

Where are the United defence?

Jeffrey Schlupp is the man unmarked, but can only flick a header wide of the far post.

Michy Batshuayi, get up, you're embarrassing yourself man.

United midfielder Scott McTominay miscontrols a ball which rolls out of play and the Palace striker quickly wants to get it back.

McTominay holds off his man, who goes down clutching his face as though he has been caught by an Anthony Joshua right hook.

Referee Martin Atkinson strides over and tells the lads to carry on.

Very close.

Superb play from Wilfried Zaha to get inbetween Ashley Young and Paul Pogba, before nudging the ball off to Andros Townsend.

The winger cuts onto his left peg and lets fly from the angle, but it is drifts a yard wide of David de Gea's goal.

The Spaniard had it covered anyway.

Not good from Fred in the middle of the park, outmuscled off the ball by Jame McArthur but Palace are unable to capitalise.

The hosts were in a good position there, should have made more of it.

United hogging possession at the moment, looking to work an opening but switching the play, but Palace are holding their shape and looking solid.

United get another corner which is half cleared by Palace.

It drops to Fred on the edge of the box, but the Brazilian can only miscue a shot wide.

You can understand why he took the shot on, he desperately wants to impress.

Andros Townsend hares down the left and puts a decent cross into the box, but Michy Batshuayi heads wide under pressure from Victor Lindelof, who has been excellent for United since the appointment of OGS.

Thought that Ashley Young would push up from right-back to the wing, but instead it is Diogo Dalot who is playing further forward.

Young used to be a winger back int' day, you know.

Lovely play between Paul Pogba and Diogo Dalot, the Frenchman flicking the ball into the path of his team-mate.

Summer signing Dalot sprints into the box, but runs out of room and the ball rolls out of play.

Now Palace have an opportunity, which they really should have buried.

Midfielder James McArthur breaks forward and turns inside of Luke Shaw in the box, laying the ball off for Andros Townsend who can only scoop over from a few yards out.

Keeping a close eye on Paul Pogba at the moment, he seems to be OK... for now.

Oh no, surely not?

Paul Pogba, sporting a new hairdo, is limping heavily for Manchester United.

Oh deary me, this is a horrendous miss from Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian has not scored since the start of January - should punish Palace for giving away that cheap corner.

On the edge of the six-yard box, he meets Luke Shaw's cross on the volley but can only sky it over the crossbar.

Luka Milivojevic may be the Palace skipper but is intent on giving Manchester United a gift by giving away a needless corner.

Another man looking to impress is Crystal Palace striker Michy Batshuayi.

The on-loan Chelsea man initially does well to spin Fred, but then has a rush of blood and smashes a 35-yard shot way wide.

A big opportunity for Fred today, getting his first minutes since 5 January.

The travelling United fans are singing about him at the moment.

"We've got Sanchez, Paul Pogba and Fred..."
