Man Utd midfielder Fred: Decent Crystal Palace a tricky challenge

Manchester United midfielder Fred expects a "tricky" fixture at Crystal Palace tomorrow night.

The Eagles ran out 3-1 winners in September at Old Trafford.

Fred told manutd.com: "Against Crystal Palace, a tricky team, we want to put right the opening-day defeat when they beat us at Old Trafford, so we want to be able to get one over them now, to get a victory against Crystal Palace.

""We lost our first game against them at home. We know they're a tough side. We shouldn't have dropped those points, but we're going to try to do everything to recover and get the three points.

“They're a decent side, but we're Manchester United and we must go into every game to win. Palace can be a very tricky opponent. They're very tough opponents and we know about that. We also found it hard to beat them last season and that goes for this season too. "

“As I said, we always have to go into matches to win, even more so if we want to keep our title bid up, so it's a must-win game."
