Chris Sutton drops Crystal Palace vs Man Utd scoreline prediction as one 'lively' player tipped to make big impact

Sutton: Palace set for lively clash against Man Utd

Former Blackburn Rovers striker Chris Sutton has predicted a lively clash when Crystal Palace host Manchester United in the Premier League on Wednesday night.

Sutton believes Patrick Vieira's side will be up for the challenge of facing one of the league's top teams and has even backed them to take something from the game.

Sutton: Zaha to cause Man Utd problems

Sutton has also tipped Wilfried Zaha to be a key player for Palace and believes the winger could cause United's defence problems.

He said: "I think it's going to be a lively game. Palace are a good side and they'll be up for this one.

"Zaha is a quality player and he'll be looking to make a big impact.

"I fancy Palace to get something from this game, maybe a 2-1 win."

Man Utd looking to bounce back

Meanwhile, Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from their disappointing defeat to Brighton in their last outing.

Erik ten Hag's side were beaten 2-1 at home by the Seagulls and will be keen to make amends against Palace.

United have a good record against Palace, winning their last four meetings, but they will be wary of the threat posed by Vieira's team.
