Manchester United did not have to play particularly well to beat Crystal Palace on Sunday, and Eagles boss Oliver Glasner moaned afterwards about the club's failure to bring players in over the summer.

When a manager does that, I start to wonder how long he will hang around. I get it - you have to leave when your stock is high, and Glasner's certainly is at the moment.

He is right, though, because their squad is stretched. Glasner must have been listening to the Monday Night Club because I've been saying the same thing since the start of the season, about how they are going to come a cropper because it is very difficult to compete without that depth.

I still think Palace will win this game though, because Burnley are in a bit of bother.

Scott Parker's side don't score enough goals so it was a real blow for them to get level at Brentford with five minutes to go on Saturday and still get nothing from the game.

I have a feeling they will battle away here too, and then see Palace sneak it late on.

Sutton's prediction: 0-1
