Manchester United vs Crystal Palace September 14, 2013

Manchester United have had a shaky start to the season, with the four points amassed from the opening three games not exactly a convincing start to David Moyes' Old Trafford tenure. He'll be looking to ensure the Red Devils bounce back from the disappointment of defeat to Liverpool before the international break with a win over Crystal Palace this weekend, with anything but three points sure to see the pressure on the new boss ratcheted up.

Manchester United will look to build some positive momentum when they welcome in Crystal Palace on Saturday.

The Red Devils are coming off a 1-0 loss to Liverpool in which they looked very pedestrian. That followed a draw with Chelsea in what was one of the most drab Premier League matches over the last few years. United have some major issues and could look to start solving them with a comfortable win over Palace.

Ian Holloway's men beat Sunderland 3-1 in their last match. It was a surprising result, if only for how Palace were able to boss the match. Still this is a club that will likely be flirting with relegation this season.

Here's a quick preview for this EPL fixture.

Manchester United: David De Gea; Patrice Evra, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidić, Chris Smalling; Tom Cleverley, Michael Carrick; Ashley Young, Danny Welbeck, Antonio Valencia; Robin van Persie
