Palace boss Alan was part of the Eagles side that
lost the 1990 cup final to Saturday’s opponents,
and he’ll be keen to avenge that defeat 26 years
on.

Pardew has a full squad of players to choose from
for the FA Cup final other than Joe Ledley, who is
out with a broken leg while United can count on
the services of Marouane Fellaini who returns
from suspension, while Matteo Darmian and
Marcos Rojo have regained full fitness in time for
the match.

Morgan Schneiderlin, who missed Tuesday’s game
against Bournemouth with illness, is also
expected to be available.

Louis van Gaal has a full compliment of players to
choose from, other than Luke Shaw, who returned
to training with the squad this
week but lacks the
match fitness to be involved at Wembley.

Wilfried Zaha will definitely start for Palace being
their best player and he is infamously Sir Alex
Ferguson’s signing for United before retiring in
2013.

The match will kick off at 5.30pm on Saturday
21st May.
