Manchester United will adjust their lineup, starting with a centre‑forward and looking for a reference point to help the attack. The team may rely on Mbeumo stepping inside on his left foot to deliver crosses to the back post, exploiting his aerial prowess.
Crystal Palace is expected to defend deep and centrally, with Bruno likely to slip passes down the sides of the outside centre‑backs. Wide players will aim to hit the space behind the wing‑backs, creating chances for the forwards.
