					<description><![CDATA[<p>Manchester United looks to secure their first league double over Crystal Palace since the 2017-18 season. Crystal Palace aims for a historic third consecutive away win against United, a feat achieved only by Chelsea in the past.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After their 2-1 victory at Selhurst Park in November, Manchester United aims to achieve their first league double over Crystal Palace since the 2017-18 season.</p>
<p>Crystal Palace has secured victories in four of their last six away matches against Manchester United (L2), despite having only triumphed in two of their initial 22 trips to Old Trafford (D3 L17).</p>
<p>After securing victories in their previous two encounters, Crystal Palace aims to become only the second team from London to achieve three straight away league wins against Manchester United, following Chelsea&#8217;s feat from 1967-68 to 1969-70.</p>
<p>In their last 12 home matches in the Premier League, Manchester United have accumulated 27 points (W8 D3 L1) – which is 16 points more than they secured in their prior 13 fixtures at Old Trafford (11 – W3 D2 L8).</p>
<p>Crystal Palace has secured victories in two of their last three Premier League matches (L1), earning a total of six points in these games, which is double the amount they accumulated in their prior nine matches combined (3 – D3 L6).</p>
<p>Since Boxing Day, Manchester United remains the sole team unbeaten in the Premier League (W6 D4), and they have accumulated the highest points total (22) during this stretch.</p>
<p>Out of Crystal Palace&#8217;s last 14 away victories in the Premier League, 12 have been against teams that were in the lower half of the standings at the time, with their six away triumphs this season coming against opponents who, on average, ranked 17th in the league on match day. Palace has managed just two wins in their last 26 away matches against teams that were in the top six at the start of the day (D8 L16).</p>
<p>Michael Carrick, the manager of Manchester United, has achieved victory in all four of his home league matches at the helm (one in 2021 and three in 2026) – only Frank O’Farrell has managed to win his first five home matches in charge of the Red Devils, accomplishing this feat in 1971 (he won his first six).</p>
<p>Dean Henderson, the goalkeeper for Crystal Palace, has achieved three clean sheets in four matches against his previous team, Manchester United (75%), marking the highest success rate of any goalkeeper in Premier League history versus the Red Devils. The only visiting keeper to secure clean sheets in his initial two appearances at Old Trafford is Fraser Forster, who accomplished this during the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons with Southampton.</p>
