The Premier League is in the spotlight on the French Football Weekly website! This Saturday, Manchester United welcomes Crystal Palace to its Old Trafford lair for the 7th day of the English championship. A mid-table duel which will see two teams in search of sensations and lacking in confidence clash at the start of the season. And for good reason, authors of a disappointing start on an accounting and sporting level (9th, 9pts), the Red Devils will be keen to put on a good show in front of their public to finally continue after a success obtained against Burnley last weekend (0-1). Opposite, Crystal Palace (10th, 8pts), already heavily beaten by Manchester United this week in the League Cup (0-3), presents itself with the firm intention of playing spoilsport in the “theater of dreams ” and thus take revenge on his opponent in the championship.
This part will be followed live with live commentary on the French Football Weekly website from 4 p.m. For this seventh outing in the Premier League, Erik Ten Hag decided to opt for his preferred tactical scheme organized in 4-2-3-1. In the absence of Lisandro Martinez, injured, Victor Lindelof continues a new tenure in central hinge alongside Raphaël Varane. The midfield is made up of Mason Mount and Casemiro, while Facundo Pellistri, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford start on the attacking front.

Former OL and Mainz player, Jean-Philippe Mateta starts up front while Jordan Ayew, Jeffrey Schlupp and Eberechi Eze will accompany the Habs in attack.
