Man Utd begin the defence of there Carabao Cup title when they take on Crystal Palace in the 3rd round on the 23rd of September 2023. Kick off is 2000 hours UK time at Old Trafford.

Erik Ten Hag will hope for another win after beating Burnley Saturday night. Ten Hag’s record in cup competitions since taking over as United manager is extremely impressive. United are expected to rest a few first team players. Altay Bayindir could make his debut in goal for United since he joined the Red Devils. Erik Ten Hag’s defensive selection will be interesting given the vast amount of injuries. The likes of Jonny Evans couldn’t be expected to play at the age of 35 after playing the full 90 minutes on Saturday night against Burnley.

Crystal Palace come to Old Trafford knowing they have nothing to lose and everything to gain. After a fortunate draw at Fulham on Saturday Roy Hodgson could play a strong team in the hope of an upset at Old Trafford.
