Manchester United XI vs Crystal Palace: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest

Ralf Rangnick will take charge of his final game as Manchester United interim manager at Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Despite teasing his return to bid a farewell to the United fans, Paul Pogba has been ruled out having failed to recover from a calf injury ahead of his contract expiring.

But the Red Devils has received boosts on multiple fronts before the trip to Selhurst Park.

Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho are back in training after bouts of illness and could be named in the squad, along with Luke Shaw and Eric Bailly who have shaken off issues.

The England contingent, however, could all miss out. Shaw for personal reasons after the birth of his second while while Sancho and Rashford will not be risked.

Rangnick did also admit a “number” of players are suffering with knocks.

A number of youngsters have joined first-team training this week and could stake their claim as Erik ten Hag watches on before officially taking charge of the team.

Alejandro Garnacho, Teden Mengi, Alvaro Fernandez, Hannibal Mejbri, Charlie Savage and Shola Shoretire are all vying for a runout.

Predicted Manchester United XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Varane, Telles; McTominay, Fred; Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford; Ronaldo.
