The last round of the Premier League for the 2021/22 season will offer us the match between Crystal Palace and Manchester United. The meeting on Sunday from 18:00 is much more important for the guests. They have already beaten this opponent 1-0 at home earlier in the campaign. However, since their last visit to Selhurst Park, the Red Devils have only left with a point after a draw.
Crystal Palace managed to stabilize after three consecutive losses in mid-April. One of them cost him his participation in the FA Cup final. Four matches in the Eagles Championship followed, in which they recorded two wins and two draws. So they even allowed themselves to look at the top half of the standings again.
Everything went according to plan during their visit to the surviving Everton in the previous round. With a score of 0: 2 at the break, the development of the match seemed somewhat decided. The Caramels, however, showed great will and achieved a complete turnaround. So Crystal Palace dropped two positions in the standings and can not finish ahead of 10th place at best.
Manchester United have played a rather disappointing season and will have to accept a place in the Europa League, not the Champions League in the autumn. However, even his sixth position is in question before the end. West Ham are only two points behind the Red Devils, who have a much worse goal difference.
They have lost three of their last five Premier League games, conceding at least three goals in each defeat. Even if we leave the losses from Arsenal and Liverpool aside, the 4-0 defeat by Brighton is a real tragedy. Now Manchester United has the perfect opportunity to take revenge on their supporters. However, the lack of key players may prevent the team from maintaining its sixth position in the final standings.
There are many questions before the starting lineup of Manchester United before this match. However, Cristiano Ronaldo will most likely start at the top of the attack. He has more than once or twice made a difference in the important matches of the Red Devils. I expect him to save the season for his team again today and to secure the much-needed quota for the Europa League of Manchester United.
