In another close market not too dissimilar to the one for the Leicester City clash, Leeds are market leaders at around the 6-4 mark with 31-20 the best on offer and Palace hovering around the 2-1 area with 83-41 the best in town.

The draw is on offer at 5-2 and the two players seen as United and Palace's main goal threats cannot be split in the first scorer market with United no 9 Bamford and Palace forward Zaha both 6-1 to net first.

Palace trio Michy Batshuayi (13-2), Christian Benteke (7s) and Jordan Ayew (7s) are next in the betting ahead of two United men in Tyler Roberts and Raphinha who are both 17-2.

With Rodrigo absent, it means United playmaker Pablo Hernandez looks a decent price at 10-1 to score first and 7-2 any time with Palace's Andros Townsend also looking quite good odds at 13s.

But goals for both sides are once again expected with both teams to score at 10-13 and, as was the case against Leicester, a 1-1 draw is favourite in the correct score market at 6-1 with a 1-0 triumph at 17-1 and a 1-0 success for the hosts on offer at 10s, the same price as a 2-1 victory for Leeds which might be just about the right shout.
