Mount, Maguire and Amrabat start for Manchester United against Crystal Palace

Erik Ten Hag set an experimental lineup to face Crystal Palace in Old Trafford for the first stage of the 2023/2024 Carabao Cup, where the Red Devils will try to develop a winning streak after achieving an important 0-1 win against Burnley last week in the Premier League, which would have boosted the confidence of the United players.

The United’s coach surprised the fans setting Onana as the goalkeeper for the game, as everyone expected that Bayindir could make his debut with the club, while Amrabat is the urgent right back found to cover the absences in the defense, as Maguire returns to the lineup to play alongside Varane. In the midfield, the great news for Untied is the return of Mason Mount, ready to partner with Casemiro, while the attack is composed of Pellistri, Hannibal and Garnacho playing behind Anthony Martial.

On their side, Crystal Palace arrived to Old Trafford with the former United player Dean Henderson making his debut in the goal of the Eagles, who presented changes in all their lines, with a defense built with Clyne, Holding, Richards and Mitchel, a midfield composed of Doucoure and Ridewald, and Ayew, Schlupp and Rak-Sakyi playing behind Jean Mateta.
