How to watch Manchester United vs Crystal Palace - TV channel, live stream and kick-off time

Man United host Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night as they begin the defence of their title.

Erik ten Hag’s side were riding the crest of a wave when they won the competition back in February, with hopes high at that stage for the future. However, things have stalled in recent weeks and now this match presents a chance to build positive momentum and regain a feel-good factor at the club following the weekend’s 1-0 win against Burnley.

United’s win in the competition last season was their first trophy win since 2017 and the hope will be now that they can push on for similar honours this season. However, they will face a strong test against Premier League opposition in the form of Crystal Palace.

The football season is now upon us and with 500 live games to watch, as well access to Cricket, Golf, F1, Boxing, NFL and the NBA across eight dedicated channels, Sky Sports is the only way to watch all the action.

Palace’s last visit to Old Trafford was for a 2-1 defeat back in February and Roy Hodgson’s side will be expecting a strong showing after a solid start to the season. Having drawn 0-0 against Fulham at the weekend, the Eagles are just one place ahead of United in the league table and will seek to assert themselves in this week’s fixture at Old Trafford.
