Crystal Palace's Connor Wickham does not agree with the notion that Manchester United will be disadvantaged by their rearranged Premier League fixture this week.

The Red Devils were to play Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Sunday only for the final day fixture to be rescheduled to Tuesday night following a bomb scare prior to kick-off.

It is felt that having their preparation time for Saturday's FA Cup final against Palace cut short by two days will negatively affect United but Palace striker Wickham feels the Wembley decider is still there for the taking regardless of the midweek disruption.

"We know how good United are," said Wickham.

"They are used to playing two games a week. They will be ready for us. We have to make sure we're better than them.

"It's more that it's disrupted that weekend. They were ready to go out and they got evacuated. It's up to them what team they play but their Champions League hopes are gone so their main focus will be on us.

"Obviously they will rotate players and make a lot of changes. They will want to keep some players ticking over and give them some minutes but I'd expect them to make changes."
