Team News: Six changes for Man Utd at Palace

Louis van Gaal has made six changes to the Manchester United side which lost on penalties to Middlesbrough in midweek for this afternoon's trip to Crystal Palace.

Louis van Gaal has made six changes to the Manchester United side which lost on penalties to Middlesbrough in midweek for this afternoon's trip to Crystal Palace.

After United were knocked out of the League Cup fourth round on Wednesday, the Dutchman has restored David De Gea in goal in place of Sergio Romero.

Morgan Schneiderlin, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Ander Herrera come back into central midfield, while Juan Mata, Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney are back in attack.

Matteo Darmian keeps his place at right-back with Antonio Valencia injured, as Van Gaal fields the same defence which kept a clean sheet in the cup tie before a penalty shootout, with Darmian alongside Chris Smalling, Daley Blind and Marcos Rojo.

Phil Jones misses out on a place in the matchday squad due to lack of fitness as Marouane Fellaini, Michael Carrick, Jesse Lingard and Andreas Pereira all drop to the bench.

For Palace, there are five changes from the 5-1 defeat to Manchester City in midweek.

Joel Ward comes back in for Adrian Mariappa at right-back, while James McArthur, Yohan Cabaye, Jason Puncheon and Dwight Gayle all return.

Crystal Palace: Hennessey; Kelly, Dann, Delaney, Ward; McArthur, Cabaye; Zaha, Puncheon, Bolasie; Gayle
Subs: Speroni, Hangeland, Jedinak, Ledley, Lee, Sako, Bamford

Manchester United: De Gea; Darmian, Blind, Smalling, Rojo; Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger, Herrera, Mata; Martial, Rooney
Subs: Romero, Tuanzebe, Young, Carrick, Lingard, Pereira, Fellaini
