Manchester United have the chance to get their Premier League form back on track as they put their cup commitments to one side to take on Crystal Palace.
The Red Devils tasted defeat for the first time in 10 games in their last league outing as Eddie Nketiah's late winner helped Arsenal to all three points over Erik ten Hag's men. That result has quelled any title talk around Old Trafford, but a top four berth is still very much in their sights.
Nothing less than a win will do against Palace, who snatched a point off United less than three weeks ago thanks to Michael Olise's thumping last-gasp free-kick. But can they get another result on away soil?
Here is everything you need to know about the match.
When is Man Utd vs Crystal Palace?
The two sides will meet at Old Trafford on Saturday February 4 with kick-off scheduled for 3pm.

It is the second time they will clash in a matter of weeks following their 1-1 draw at Selhurst Park last month. Olise's incredible equaliser cancelled out Bruno Fernandes' opener, though United were left raging after being turned down a penalty for a foul on Scott McTominay.
