Maxence Lacroix vs Joshua Zirkzee
The summer transfer window saw exciting new arrivals join Crystal Palace and Manchester United in Maxence Lacroix and Joshua Zirkzee.
Palace announced the signing of Maxence Lacroix from VfL Wolfsburg on a five-year deal.
Lacroix, who weard the No. 5 shirt, first made his professional debut with French side Sochaux before joining Wolfsburg under the guidance of current Palace manager Oliver Glasner.
His time in Germany was marked by 130 appearances, with seven goals to his name.
Now reunited with Glasner, Lacroix is expected to be a key figure in Palace’s defence.
Facing Lacroix is Joshua Zirkzee, another summer signing who joined Manchester United from Bologna for £36.54m.
Zirkzee made an early impact by scoring in his debut against Fulham but has since missed several big chances in front of goal.
To make his mark in this game, Zirkzee will need to overcome Lacroix’s physical presence and capitalise on the opportunities that come his way.
If Zirzkee is able to finish the chances that fall his way, then he could be crucial in securing an important 3 points for the Red Devils.
