Man Utd starting XI and confirmed team news vs Crystal Palace in the Premier League fixture.
Manchester United have named their starting line up to face Crystal Palace in the Premier League fixture on Sunday afternoon.
Michael Carrick has made one change to his side for the match, with Benjamin Sesko named in attack after his scoring heroics against Everton earlier in the week. The 22-year-old has scored six goals in his last seven appearances, but had yet to be named in a starting line since Carrick took charge last month.
United can go third in the Premier League table with victory over Palace and are well-placed to secure Champions League qualification at the end of the season. A top-four finish is certain to earn a place in the top continental club competition next season, while a top-five finish will likely be enough due to the current Uefa coefficient rankings.

Benjamin Sesko has been named in the Manchester United starting line up for their clash with Crystal Palace in the Premier League today. The Slovenian has been chosen to lead the line, with Amad Diallo dropped from the attack to accommodate him.
It means that Senne Lammens keeps his place in goal after his excellent performance against Everton, with Leny Yoro and Harry Maguire the choices in central defence. Lisandro Martinez is not fit enough to be involved, while Diogo Dalot and Luke Shaw continue in the full-back roles.
Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo start together in central midfield, with Bruno Fernandes selected in his preferred attacking midfield role. Sesko is joined in the forward line with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha.
United youngsters Tyler Fletcher and Jack Moorhouse have been named on the bench for the Old Trafford clash, with Matthijs De Ligt, Patrick Dorgu and Mason Mount all still out due to injury.
