Trevoh Chalobah, a promising player from Chelsea, has yet to make his debut for Crystal Palace. This weekend, Manchester United will face Crystal Palace in a highly anticipated Premier League match. However, United has received some good news as two key rival players are currently injured and will not be able to play.
United is coming off of two impressive victories, a 3-0 win against Southampton and a 7-0 thrashing of Barnsley in the Carabao Cup. This has put them in high spirits as they prepare to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday evening. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace manager Erik ten Hag has received some positive updates from his treatment room. Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount are back in training and may potentially be able to play in the upcoming match.
Unfortunately, not all news is positive for Palace. Their summer signing, Trevoh Chalobah, will not be able to play due to a strange abdominal injury that he sustained during his first training session with the team. There was hope that he would recover in time to play against United, but it seems he will need more time to heal. "He's progressing, but he's not available tomorrow. We expect him back with the team next week," confirmed Glasner in his press conference on Friday.
In addition, Cheick Doucoure, a defensive midfielder for Palace, will also be unavailable for the match. He is suffering from a toe issue and will be out of the game for several weeks. This news is particularly concerning as Doucoure was named Palace's player of the year in his debut season but missed most of last season due to an achilles injury. "Unfortunately, Cheick Doucoure has some [injury] to do with the tendon on the toe. We will miss him for several weeks," added Glasner.
Moreover, long-term absentees Chadi Riad and Matheus Franca are still sidelined, adding to Palace's list of unavailable players. This may be a challenge for Palace, as they had an impressive 4-0 victory against United in their last meeting in May. In that match, Adam Wharton played a key role for the Eagles. However, Glasner has revealed that Wharton has been playing through pain and needed some rest in their midweek Carabao Cup win. "We have to manage him. He's not pain-free and some days are better, some days are worse, so he needed the rest [in midweek's Carabao Cup win]. He had the entire game against Leicester and [playing] three days later just made no sense. He needs this time to rest, but now he's fit," said Glasner.
Overall, it seems that Manchester United has been handed a boost ahead of their match against Crystal Palace, with two key rival players out due to injury. This may give them an advantage, especially after their recent victories. However, Palace has proven to be a formidable opponent in the past, and United will have to be prepared for a tough match. Regardless, fans are eagerly anticipating the outcome of this highly anticipated Premier League clash.
