Crystal Palace vs Manchester United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face Manchester United in the Premier League today.
The Red Devils have brought in new signing Wout Weghorst for a full debut, leading the line with the in-form Marcus Rashford still stationed out on the left flank where he has been so effective once more of late. Erik ten Hag’s side have won the last five on the bounce in the top flight, moving up to fourth place in the progress, but a win here will take them into second above Newcastle and rivals Man City.
Palace have struggled for consistency this term and have won just one of the last five, but victory here would at least keep them in touch with the top half, even if they won’t move up from 12th place - barring an absolutely crushing win.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

United must quickly dust themselves down and get ready for their blockbuster clash with Premier League leaders Arsenal on Sunday. The previous day, Palace look to build on their momentum when they host high-flying Newcastle United.

That was some ending at Selhurst Park! Manchester United looked set to move second in the Premier League after Bruno Fernandes' first-half strike. However, Erik ten Hag's side were denied in the first minute of stoppage time, when Michael Olise crashed home a stunning 25-yard free-kick to snatch a share of the spoils.

WHAT A TACKLE! Plenty of drama at both ends in the dying moments here! Racing away on the counter, Zaha threatens to snatch all three points against his former club. However, ex-Palace full-back Wan-Bissaka tracks him all the way before making a perfectly timed sliding challenge.

CHANCE! United look to respond immediately and an unmarked Casemiro is somehow unable to turn Fernandes' corner into an open goal from three yards out. Garnacho's follow-up effort is straight at Guaita.

Though generally second best so far, Crystal Palace certainly had their moments during that first half. Odsonne Eduoard was inches away from putting the hosts ahead but for David de Gea's wonderful reflexes, although that was their only effort on target so far.

Manchester United broke the deadlock just before half-time to take a slender lead into the break at Selhurst Park. It was a brilliant goal as well with Marcus Rashford and Christian Eriksen combining to set up Bruno Fernandes, who made no mistake in putting the visitors ahead.

WHAT A SAVE! A relative spectator during this first half, Edouard suddenly bursts into life. The Palace striker gains a yard on Varane before bending the ball towards the top corner. But De Gea does brilliantly to get a fingertip on the effort and touch it onto the crossbar.

Superb tackle! United look to work their way into the Palace box and a neat one-touch move almost gets Casemiro in behind. But Guehi is alert and produces a perfectly timed sliding challenge to stop the midfielder from pulling the trigger.

After he is well-found, space opens for Fernandes to try his luck from the edge of the area. He looks for the far post, but Guaita watches his strike all the way wide.

JUST OVER! Weghorst whiskers away! Shaw is enabled far too much room to set himself and send an inviting ball into the box. It is met by Weghorst, but his header just drops the wrong side of the crossbar.

Antony also appearing to have issues with his own team-mates. The Brazil international becomes embroiled in a war of words with Fernandes after a lapse in communication culminates in a United attack breaking down.

Although the form book makes them favourites, United have not enjoyed playing Palace in recent times, losing three of their past six Premier League meetings. That is as many as they registered in their previous 31 encounters.

JUST WIDE! Sloppy defending leads to a chance for Antony, who neatly lifts the ball over the stranded Guaita. However, his effort drifts marginally the wrong side of the post.

The Netherlands international is one of three changes from the derby win over Manchester City, with Martinez and Antony also back in the starting XI.
