Highlights.

MOTM: Dean Henderson.

Manchester United have only 7 points out of a possible 15 after 5 games..

Dean Henderson is the first goalkeeper to make 7+ saves and keep a clean sheet against Man Utd in a PL game since Nick Pope in January 2020. Based on the quality of the shots he faced, he prevented 1.65 goals, with his seven saves also being the joint most he has ever made in a PL game.

Bruno Fernandes has had more shots without scoring (17) than any other player in the Premier League so far this season.

Manchester United have kept four clean sheets in their last six Premier League matches, more than they had kept in the previous 24.

Crystal Palace haven’t won any of their first five games in the Premier League this season (D3 L2), the fifth time they’ve failed to do so in a single campaign in the competition. The Eagles have been relegated on three of the previous four occasions when failing to win any of their first five (1992-93, 1994-95 and 2004-05).

Of teams they’ve faced more than 10 times in the Premier League, Manchester United have drawn 0-0 in a higher percentage of their games versus Crystal Palace than against any other opponent in the competition (16% – 5/31).
