For Manchester United, this weekend's trip to Selhurst Park will bring about bad memories.

The last time Erik ten Hag took his team to South London was in May when Crystal Palace dismantled Manchester United 4-0.

The Red Devils were hopeless as Michael Olise enjoyed his crowning moment which likely played a pretty big role in his move to Bayern Munich.

That being said, lots has changed for both clubs since then - both on and off the pitch.

Manchester United will come into the game very confident after two good wins on the bounce.

Now, Paul Merson has issued his prediction for Manchester United vs Crystal Palace which will kick off on Saturday at 5.

30 pm.

But these will be obsolete if United can't show a similar brand of football and result against the Eagles.

MORE UNITED STORIESAs we ponder how the game will go, Merson has given his prediction on SportsKeeda and he is not confident that United will win.

"I think this will be an entertaining game.

There will definitely be goals in this one.

If Manchester United win, they can pat themselves on the back because that would be a great result.

I'm going for a high-scoring draw though.

"Manchester United will definitely have a go at the Eagles and it will be a very open game.

"Merson predicted a 2-2 scoreline, a result which would not be the end of the world - but we want a win.

A draw would not be helpful for United in making up ground on the top fourAt the very least, we want to see United heading into the positive goal difference and climbing up a couple of spots.

Marcus Rashford tipped to be star man Over the past week, Marcus Rashford has exploded back into life, as he begins his Remontada in football after a year of truly awful displays.

Scoring against both Southampton and Barnsley, now Merson is backing him to do it again against Palace.

"I hope Marcus Rashford is back to his best now.

He played well against Barnsley.

"Rashford will either score goals or he will be absolutely terrible, there's no in-between for him.

I have a feeling he'll score against Palace.

"The form Rashford is in is likely to continue - he is that kind of player.

When he starts scoring, there is no stopping him.

With a smile on his face, Rashford is an entirely different footballer and we cannot wait to see him in action again.
