European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Crystal Palace Vs Manchester United: FA Cup Final (1 - 2) On 21st May 2016 by seydam21(m): 5:11pm On May 16, 2016 |
Match Preview Crystal Palace take on Manchester United in the 2016 FA Cup Final at Wembley on Saturday in what is a huge game for both clubs after fairly disappointing league campaigns. Palace finished the Premier League season in 15th place and lost three of their last four games, including a 4-1 loss to Southampton on the final day last weekend. However, Alan Pardew’s side have been excellent in the FA Cup. They beat Watford in the semifinal and also saw off the likes of Southampton, Stoke, Tottenham and Reading to reach the final. A win on Saturday would see Palace win the FA Cup for the first time in their history. Their only previous final appearance came in 1990 and was incidentally also against Manchester United. United won that final 1-0 in a replay after the side’s drew 3-3 in the original clash. Another tight affair is expected this weekend, though the Red Devils remain favourites. Louis Van Gaal may well be preparing for his final game as Manchester United manager, with speculation about his future not going anywhere. The team will be solely focused on this game for now, though. They beat Bournemouth 3-1 in their final Premier League game on Tuesday night, which was rescheduled following last Sunday’s abandonment. The lack of preparation time might affect the squad but they will still be expected to win in 90 minutes on Saturday evening. They beat Sheffield United, Derby, Shrewsbury, West Ham and Everton to reach this stage and will now want to lift the FA Cup for the first time since 2004. Team News Manchester United boss Louis Van Gaal has eight injury concerns ahead of Saturday’s game. Marcos Rojo, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Will Keane all look certain to miss out, while Adnan Januzaj, Luke Shaw, Matteo Darmian and Morgan Schneiderlin are listed as doubts. Wayne Rooney will likely occupy a midfield position once again, with Marcus Rashford set to start in attack. Crystal Palace have seven injury worries of their own. Kwesi Appiah, Marouane Chamakh, Brede Hangeland and Joe Ledley are all sidelined, while Connor Wickham, Yohan Cabaye and Wilfried Zaha are all 50/50 ahead of the final. Key Points Crystal Palace’s last five in all competitions: L/W/L/W/L Manchester United’s last five in all competitions: W/D/W/L/W Key Stat: United are unbeaten in six games against Palace, conceding just once in that time. Key Player: Anthony Martial – The United striker has scored four goals and bagged two assists in his last four outings and is in the form of his season. He fired United into the final with his late goal against Everton and will look to shine at Wembley once again here. Score Prediction Crystal Palace 0-2 Manchester United – A low-scoring affair is expected between two sides that don’t tend to score too many. Palace have been in poor form and despite their strong run in the FA Cup, they are underdogs here and look likely to come up short. United have improved towards the end of the season but will need a trophy to feel satisfied, having missed out on the top four. United to win. |

Match Preview Louis van Gaal says Manchester United must not allow sentiment to get in the way of their quest for UEFA Champions League football when they face West Ham United at the Boleyn Ground. United will bring the curtain down on famous ground's Barclays Premier League legacy on Tuesday, with the Hammers moving into their new home at the Olympic Stadium for the 2016-17 campaign. The clash is United's match in hand over their top- four rivals and three points in the capital could prove crucial in Van Gaal's mission to take them back into Europe's elite club competition. History favours the 13-time BPL champions, with United unbeaten in the league at the Boleyn Ground since 2007 – a run of six matches. "We have a lot of respect to West Ham United; we are not trying to spoil their party," said the Dutch coach. "But we do need the three points. That is different. "It will be a big night and an emotional night for them. It [playing the final game at the Boleyn Ground] is a negative for us. We have to play against an opponent who says goodbye to the stadium so they don't want to lose. "They have already lost to Manchester United in the last FA Cup match so that is not very good for us and West Ham United are a very good team. "The game is not just about a farewell party for West Ham either, with manager Slaven Bilic also hoping for a European place despite Saturday's 4-1 defeat to Swansea City. The top four is still a possibility for the Hammers, but the Europa League looks to be a more realistic goal and Bilic has demanded an immediate response to ensure they have continental football to look forward to in their new home. "We have to bounce back. We have two games left and want to finish high," he said. "Our aim is to show a good spirit and character that has been with us all season and we hope to show that against Manchester United. "It will be an emotional night, but the fact that it is the final ever game makes it even more special and we have to stay cool and stay focused because we want to win the game. "We have been thinking about a European place since we knew it was reachable and we can still do it. When we give our best we still have a lot to offer." West Ham have no new injury worries, but the visitors are likely to be without Matteo Darmian (ankle) after he left Saturday's 1-0 win over Norwich City on a stretcher, while Anthony Martial (hamstring) is also a doubt after pulling up prior to the Carrow Road clash. West Ham United (from): Randolph, Spiegel, Byram, Collins, Cresswell, Henry, O'Brien, Ogbonna, Oxford, Reid, Tomkins, Antonio, Cullen, Kouyate, Lanzini, Moses, Noble, Obiang, Payet, Samuelsen, Song, Carroll, Emenike, Jelavic, Sakho, Valencia.

West Ham goalkeeper Adrian is the only injury absentee for the club's final game at Upton Park after 112 years. The Spaniard is out with a calf injury so Darren Randolph will deputise. Manchester United forward Anthony Martial is a doubt after withdrawing from Saturday's win at Norwich because of a tight hamstring. Matteo Darmian is sidelined by an ankle injury and Marouane Fellaini is banned, but Daley Blind and Marcus Rashford could be recalled. |

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Manchester United Vs Leicester City (1 - 1) On 1st May 2016 by seydam21(m): 2:55pm On Apr 30, 2016 |
Match Preview Claudio Ranieri is hoping his Leicester City side can engineer a Hollywood ending to their season as they go to Manchester United seeking a victory that would secure their first Barclays Premier League title on Sunday. Having narrowly escaped relegation from the top flight last season by winning seven of their final nine outings, the dramatic turnaround continued into 2015-16 as Leicester set the pace at the top of the table. Tottenham Hotspur's failure to beat West Bromwich Albion on Monday means the Foxes, who are seven points clear and nine matches unbeaten, require just three points from their three remaining matches in order to be crowned champions. The first opportunity to secure a maiden top-flight title comes when Ranieri's side travel to Old Trafford, home of the BPL's most-successful club. The Italian is confident Leicester will be able to complete the job, but wants to see a defining performance against Man Utd. "It is important for us to make a perfect game," said Ranieri. "The best away performance of the season, we have to do it. "It is good we are doing something special. And of course I am very proud for everybody in Leicester, for our community. "There is a good feeling about this story, but it is important to finish the story like an American movie. Always in the final it is OK, a happy ending. "I feel it is very important to be concentrated 100 per cent. The story of football is fantastic but you have to be focused on the match. I don't tell my players to stay calm, I say, 'stay hungry'." United, though, are desperate to remain in the hunt for UEFA Champions League qualification and will be brimming with confidence after booking an FA Cup final place with a last-gasp Anthony Martial winner against Everton at Wembley last weekend. Beating the leaders could play an important role in boosting their chances, with Manchester City and Arsenal, third and fourth respectively and five points clear, still to face each another. But Louis van Gaal, the Man Utd manager, expects a typically difficult match against Ranieri, citing his previous encounters with the Italian during their coaching spells in Spanish football. "It was never easy to beat his teams," said the Dutchman, who managed Barcelona, against Ranieri's Valencia. "Valencia and Barcelona is also more or less a derby so it is a difficult match. He has always organised his teams very good." Leicester's only absentee is striker Jamie Vardy, who completes a two-match ban. Van Gaal has no new injury concerns to contend with, though Bastian Schweinsteiger and Luke Shaw will not be fit to feature. Manchester United (from): De Gea, Romero, Borthwick- Jackson, Darmian, Jones, McNair, Rojo, Smalling, Valencia, Varela, Blind, Carrick, Fellaini, Herrera, Januzaj, Lingard, Mata, Pereira, Schneiderlin, Young, Depay, Martial, Rooney. Leicester City (from): Schmeichel, Schwarzer, Fuchs, Huth, Moore, Morgan, Simpson, Wasilewski, Albrighton, Amartey, Drinkwater, Dyer, Gray, Inler, James, Kante, King, Mahrez, Schlupp, Dodoo, Okazaki, Ulloa. Match Appointments Referee: Michael Oliver Assistants: G Beswick, L Betts Fourth Official: C Pawson Match Facts - After winning nine Barclays Premier League matches in a row against Leicester City, Manchester United have now won only one of their last three against the Foxes (D1 L1). - Leicester have won 22 BPL matches in 2015/16 – their highest ever tally in a top-flight season, overtaking both 1928/29 and 1965/66 (21 wins). - Claudio Ranieri has won only two of his previous nine BPL matches as a manager against Manchester United (W2 D5 L2); these victories coming in December 2001 and November 2003 as Chelsea boss. - Wayne Rooney has currently scored 99 Barclays Premier League goals at Old Trafford – the only player to have scored 100+ at a single ground in the competition is Thierry Henry at Highbury (114). |

Opta stats Everton have progressed from six of their last seven FA Cup semi-finals, the exception being their last appearance at this stage in 2012 v Liverpool. They have needed extra-time or penalties to make the final in four of those six progressions. Manchester United have lost their last two FA Cup semi-finals, to Everton on penalties in 2009 and to Manchester City in 2011. They had progressed in the previous 13 appearances at this stage between 1976 and 2007. The Red Devils haven't lost three successive FA Cup semi-final ties since 1970 (also lost in 1965 and 1966). Romelu Lukaku has scored in each of his five FA Cup appearances for Everton (six goals). Anthony Martial has more assists in the FA Cup than any other player still in the competition (3). Louis van Gaal managed Barcelona to a success at the old Wembley Stadium in 1999 The Toffees are yet to concede a single goal in the FA Cup this season. Manchester United have scored just once in their last four matches against Everton at Wembley, but that goal from Norman Whiteside was to win the FA Cup in 1985. They lost by the same scoreline to them in 1995, courtesy of a Paul Rideout goal. Ross Barkley has been involved in more goals than any other Everton in their FA Cup campaign so far (four, two goals and two assists). Martinez has confirmed Seamus Coleman will miss the FA Cup semi-final Van Gaal's only previous game at Wembley as a manager came while at Barcelona, beating Arsenal 4-2 in the Champions League group stage there in October 1999. Martinez has lost 10 of his 14 meetings with Manchester United as a manager (W4), but three of those four wins have come during his time as Everton boss (W3 L3).

Team news Everton boss Martinez said in his press conference on Friday morning that Coleman will miss the Wembley game, having also been absent for the derby defeat by Liverpool due to a hamstring injury. Centre-backs Phil Jagielka and John Stones also face late fitness tests, along with defensive midfielder Gareth Barry. Bastian Schweinsteiger, Luke Shaw and Adnan Januzaj are United's only absentees. Germany midfielder Schweinsteiger (knee) is unlikely to play again this season but left-back Shaw (leg) is working with a physio as he steps up his rehabilitation.

Match Preview Louis van Gaal has hailed the achievements of Mauricio Pochettino as Manchester United prepare to visit Barclays Premier League title-challengers Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday. Spurs go into the match at White Hart Lane this weekend as genuine contenders for English football's biggest prize. United, meanwhile, are in race for the top four- they are fifth, one point behind local rivals Manchester City with seven matches of the league season remaining. "I think that they have a very good squad and I have said this also last year," Van Gaal said. "He has made a team of this squad, a team that presses high with a good positional game and they score a lot of goals. "They also have a lot of clean sheets though, which show they are a well-organised and structured team. I think you can give credit to Mauricio Pochettino." Pochettino has not only won admirers for his team's style of play and sustained assault on the championship but also for bringing through a core of home-grown talent, headlined by Harry Kane and Dele Alli, along with Eric Dier, Danny Rose and Ryan Mason. Speaking at his pre-match media conference on Friday, Pochettino agreed with suggestions the clutch of domestic talent could aspire to match the achievements of United's 'Class of 92', a crop including David Beckham, Paul Scholes and Gary Neville which fired the Red Devils to more than a decade of dominance under Sir Alex Ferguson. "Yes, why not?" he said. "This is something we decided on. We need to give them time to work hard so they can improve. But I think we have showed so far [the] quality in the team." The match will come too soon for Wayne Rooney to be involved as the United captain continues his recovery from a knee injury with the club's Under-21s. Ashley Young and Phil Jones, while lacking sharpness, are back in selection contention. Nabil Bentaleb (knee) is Tottenham's only confirmed absentee, with Clinton N'Jie and Jan Vertonghen (both knee) doubtful to return. Tottenham Hotspur (from): Lloris, McGee, Vorm, Alderweireld, Davies, Dier, Rose, Trippier, Vertonghen, Walker, Wimmer, Alli, Carroll, Chadli, Dembele, Eriksen, Lamela, Mason, Onomah, Son, Winks, Kane, N'Jie.

Match Appointments Referee: Mike Dean Assistants: S Burt, E Smart Fourth Official: J Moss Match Facts - Manchester United have now won back-to-back Barclays Premier League matches against Tottenham Hotspur, after a five-match winless run (D3 L2). They last won three in a row against Spurs in 2010 (four). - Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs are yet to score against Manchester United in three meetings. - Man Utd have not lost any of the last 14 top- flight encounters against Spurs at White Hart Lane, but have drawn six of the last eight (W8 D6). - Spurs’ last home league win over United came on the final day of the 2000/01 season. http://m.premierleague.com/en-gb/matches/2015-2016/epl.summary.html/spurs-vs-man-utd |

Match Preview Roberto Martinez expects to face a Manchester United side high on confidence when Everton visit Old Trafford in the Barclays Premier League on Sunday. Louis van Gaal's men claimed a 1-0 derby day triumph over Manchester City ahead of the international break, closing to within a point of their fourth-placed neighbours as Marcus Rashford scored the winner at the Etihad Stadium. Everton are 12th following an inconsistent season, but make the short trip to Manchester unbeaten in their previous eight league away matches. Man Utd homing in on millennium milestone >> "We all know that Manchester United control the ball really well,” Martinez told Everton TV. “Their positional play is as good as anyone. "They are very organised and they are in really good form. You don't get better doses of confidence than beating your rivals in the derby as they did. "To keep a clean sheet against Manchester City at the Etihad I think shows you the type of performance they had - well balanced. "We'll have to be at our best in imposing ourselves in our time on the ball and making sure we use that really, really well in front of goal." Van Gaal eyes third straight win over Everton >> Everton defender John Stones is available after suffering a knock on international duty with England, while Kevin Mirallas and Bryan Oviedo are back from suspension and a chest infection respectively. United will be without Bastian Schweinsteiger after the Germany captain suffered knee ligament damage while away with his country. Wayne Rooney is stepping up his recovery from a similar problem but the match against his former club comes too soon. "It's a big blow," said Van Gaal of Schweinsteiger's setback. "He is starting his rehabilitation. "He has more or less the same injury as Wayne. We have to see how it heals." FPL Scout Extra: Extra date offers chance to cash in chips >> Speaking to MUTV, the Dutchman added: "Rooney is doing great. He trained today [Friday] at a lower level with the ball and will probably play an under-21 match before he comes back. "Luke Shaw (broken leg) is back on the training pitch on Monday with the physio. Ander Herrera and Ashley Young (both groin) are coming back.” United ran out 3-0 winners at Goodison Park earlier this season, with Herrera and Rooney on target after Morgan Schneiderlin opened the scoring. Manchester United (from): De Gea, Romero, Borthwick-Jackson, Darmian, McNair, Rojo, Smalling, Fosu-Mensah, Valencia, Varela, Blind, Carrick, Fellaini, Lingard, Mata, Pereira, Schneiderlin, Depay, Martial, Rashford.

MATCH PREVIEW Manchester United and Liverpool have had many fierce meetings over the years, but this is the first time that they face one another in a European knockout match. Liverpool travel to Old Trafford on Thursday with a 2-0 advantage following their win at Anfield in the first leg a week ago. The winner of Thursday's clash will progress into the quarter-finals of the Europa League . Manchester United Life looked a bit rosier for Louis van Gaal and his team last month when they claimed four victories in all competitions on the bounce. Many believed that fixtures against Shrewsbury Town, FC Midtjylland and Arsenal would be pivotal in deciding whether or not Van Gaal kept his job at Old Trafford. Thankfully for the Dutchman, though, he overcame that test, but last Thursday the gloom returned when his team were beaten 2-0 by their long-standing rivals at Anfield in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie. Former United players Paul Scholes and Rio Ferdinand were heavily critical of the team, who managed just five shots at goal, only one of which was on target. United will need to show more fight and desire when they host Liverpool on their patch, particularly as they need to score at least three goals to progress into the quarter-finals. The Red Devils could be doomed should Liverpool score an away goal, but they have goalkeeper David de Gea at hand to keep them out and given that he made a handful of stops at Anfield, the Spaniard could prove to be pivotal. The positive news for United is that they head into this match on the back of a much-improved display against West Ham United at the weekend. Anthony Martial scored in the 83rd minute to seal a 1-1 draw against West Ham United in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, meaning that a replay will take place at Upton Park at a later date. Recent form: LWL Recent form (all competitions): WWWLLD Liverpool Jurgen Klopp received an array of plaudits after guiding his Liverpool team to victory over Manchester United in the first leg of their Europa League tie last week. The Merseyside outfit were quicker and sharper than their counterparts at Anfield and installed a game plan that United struggled to match. Liverpool were awarded a slice of luck with a 20-minute penalty, which Daniel Sturridge converted to give the Reds the lead, and after waves of pressure, Roberto Firmino doubled the team's advantage with a goal 73 minutes into the game. Overall, the Merseyside outfit's spell under Klopp has been inconsistent since his arrival in October and, in a way, that was to be expected given that the former Borussia Dortmund boss needs time to shape his own team. In the last few games, though, there have been signs of Klopp's influence, particularly as he has been able to welcome back injured players, including Sturridge and Philippe Coutinho. Firmino is one member of the team who has begun to shine following a slow start to his career at Anfield. The Brazilian is the club's leading scorer this season with nine goals in all competitions, and three of those strikes came in the last three games. As well as having a 2-0 lead in their favour ahead of Thursday's game, the Reds also have a decent European record to fall back on as they are unbeaten since February 2015 having won four and drawn five. In addition, the Merseyside outfit have had a whole week to prepare for this game as they were not in action at the weekend. Recent form: WWDDWW Recent form (all competitions): DWLWWW Team News Bastian Schweinsteiger could be vying for a place in United's starting XI on Thursday after he made his return from injury off the substitutes bench against West Ham. Jesse Lingard could also return having missed the first leg at Anfield through suspension, but there will be no Wayne Rooney as the captain is not expected to be back in action until after the international break. As for Liverpool, James Milner missed the first leg due to illness and he is currently serving a domestic ban, but he is eligible to feature this week. Martin Skrtel made his return to the pitch after a lengthy spell out recently when he featured in an Under-21 fixture, but it will probably be too early for Klopp to throw him back into the first team. Aside from long-term absentees Danny Ings and Joe Gomez , Liverpool have the majority of their senior players fit. Manchester United possible starting lineup: De Gea; Varela, Smalling, Blind, Rojo; Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin; Mata, Lingard, Depay; Martial Liverpool possible starting lineup: Mignolet; Clyne, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno; Can, Henderson; Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino; Sturridge Head To Head Prior to last week's result, United had beaten Liverpool four times on the trot and they boast a positive home record having won 12 of their last 14 matches against their enemies in all competitions at Old Trafford. Juan Mata may be struggling for form of late, but he has provided three goals and five assists in his last nine games against Liverpool. For the Merseyside outfit, Sturridge has impressed against United having scored five and provided one assist in his last seven matches against them. |
