Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew believes that Manchester United's recent form has put them under pressure ahead of their visit to Selhurst Park.
United have suffered three successive defeats without scoring a goal, and despite Palace experiencing the same sequence of results, Pardew has insisted that his team have less expectancy on their shoulders ahead of the contest.
The 53-year-old told reporters: "They come here with an unusual record for a Man United side, so there's a big pressure on them.
"We will offer the same respect to them as we will show to Liverpool."
Pardew has won 10 of his 18 games in charge of the Eagles since moving to the club at the turn of the year.
