Your support makes all the difference.It is a repeat of last season's FA Cup final at Selhurst Park, as Crystal Palace entertain Manchester United. This time, Alan Pardew will hopefully keep his dance moves to himself.
He may struggled to contain himself, however, if his side manage their first league win over United in 25 years on Wednesday. Jose Mourinho, meanwhile, will hope to build on Sunday's big win over Tottenham Hotspur.

It’s a big game for…
Paul Pogba: United’s world record signing had arguably his best performance for the club against Tottenham at Old Trafford and could’ve had a hat-trick if it weren’t for Hugo Lloris and a slice of bad luck. The Frenchman will be the Red Devils main creative threat without the injured Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Weird /best stat…
25: Palace haven’t beaten United at Selhurst Park in a league game in 25 years ago, their last success was a 3-0 win coming in May 1991.
Remember when…
Crystal Palace 1 Manchester United 2 (AET) FA Cup final, May 2016
Jesse Lingard provided Palace with some more cup final heartache with a sumptuous volley deep in extra time to secure United their first FA cup triumph in 12 years.
Player to watch…
Wilfried Zaha: Although Palace are in a rut, with two goals in his last three games, Zaha certainly is not. The rapid winger scored one of the goals of the season against Hull on Saturday and looks as if he is finally starting to live up to his potential. The Eagles winger to be a massive threat on the flank against his old club.

KICK-OFF TIME: 8:00
TV: Live on BT Sport
45+2 mins: GOAL! CRYSTAL PALACE 0 MANCHESTER UNITED 1:
There was one minute of stoppage time signalled at Selhurst Park, but, in the second minute added on, Paul Pogba had broken the deadlock. Juan Mata curled a free-kick into the penalty area, Zlatan Ibrahimovic bundled the ball on, and Pogba - marginally offside perhaps - slotted past Wayne Hennessey from close range. It hasn't been pretty, but United won't care.
HALF-TIME - MANCHESTER CITY 1 WATFORD 0:
Manchester City go in a goal to the good at the break but it's not all positive for Pep Guardiola. A minute before the break, İlkay Gundogan had to depart injured to be replaced by Fernando.
SECOND HALF KICK-OFF: As the eight o'clock games take a break for half-time, the quarter to eight ones are back underway. Liverpool, Chelsea and West Ham all lead, but each by just a single goal. All. To. Play. For.
60 mins: GOAL! MIDDLESBROUGH 0 LIVERPOOL 2:
Five in five for Divock Origi! Flowing one-touch football cut the Middlesbrough midfield and defence to pieces, and when the goalscorer of the first, Adam Lallana, squared a low cross into the middle, the in-form Belgian striker slotted past Victor Valdes.
