15/1 Crystal Palace v Man United Punt
💰 A £2.50 punt returns £39 for this bet.
🟨 Casemiro to be shown a card 🔄️
Yet again, Casemiro has struggled to avoid bookings this season, picking up 8 cards across his 24 starts in all competitions.
Casemiro deservedly holds a reputation for being a tough tackler, and the Brazilian midfielder has clearly backed this up this season, committing 1.3 fouls per league game on average.
Casemiro is no stranger to a booking when facing Palace, receiving a card in all three of his Premier League starts against his upcoming opponents.
🎯 Michael Olise to have 2+ shots on target
With only Sheffield United conceding more shots per game on average than Man United, it makes sense to consider Palace player shots, particularly Olise. He and Jean-Phillipe Mateta can cause all kinds of problems.
Also if you look at United’s shots conceded averages, it rises when they’re away as they’re conceding 20.2 shots per game away from Old Trafford.
Olise averages 3.73 shots per 90 minutes and that’s the highest rate of any player in the Palace squad. As for on target, he averages 1.24 P/90.
Olise has had two shots on target in two out of his last three. He had four shots with two on target at home to West Ham, and most recently it was five shots with two on target against Fulham.
It remains to be seen whether or not Eberechi Eze will start, but if he doesn’t we should see Olise on the free-kicks too.
🚩 Over 5.5 Crystal Palace corners
Palace have taken an abundance of corners since the arrival of Glasner, forcing an average of 5.2 corners per league match. The hosts have taken a great proportion of these corners at Selhurst Park, earning an average of 6.6 corners per home fixture.
Man United have been susceptible to leaking corners on their travels this season. This has been evident in recent away trips, with the Red Devils conceding an average of 11 corners per game across their last six league fixtures on away soil.
It is worth noting that Erik ten Hag’s men have faced a minimum of 7 corners in all of these six outings.
26/1 Crystal Palace v Man United Punt
💰 A £2.50 punt returns £67 for this bet.
🟨 Will Hughes to be shown a card 🔄️
Will Hughes has kept the referees occupied this season, receiving 6 yellow cards across his 21 league starts, with three of these coming in his last six appearances.
Hughes is clearly not afraid of a tackle and has consequently committed an average of 1.8 fouls per league game this season. It is worth noting that Palace’s middleman has committed an average of 2 fouls per game across his last six starts.
The English midfielder was booked after just thirty-two minutes when the two sides met in the league in September.
🥅 Jean Phillipe-Mateta to score anytime 🔄️
Jean-Phillipe Mateta has been on fine form for Palace in recent weeks, netting nine times in his last twelve appearances. The French talisman has excelled when playing at home along this run, scoring seven goals across his last five starts at Selhurst Park, finding the net at least once in all five matches.
Mateta has been a constant threat going forward in recent home matches, registering an average of 2 shots on target per game across his last five home outings.
The French striker will be hoping to capitalise on a vulnerable Man United defence that has conceded an average of 2.5 goals per game across their last four away league fixtures.
🛑 Diogo Dalot to commit 2+ fouls
Diogo Dalot has struggled to keep his tackles clean in the Premier League this season, committing an average of 1.2 fouls per game.
Man United’s full-back has been even more susceptible to fouling in recent away fixtures, committing an average of 2.33 fouls per game across his last six away starts.
Dalot will likely be tasked with dealing with the tricky Michael Olise, who has drawn an average of 2.2 fouls per league game this season.
