ZIDANE IQBAL could be handed his first Manchester United start for their penultimate game in Australia after impressing boss Erik ten Hag.

The 19-year-old is in line to be named in the United line-up against Crystal Palace on Tuesday following his cameos in the wins over Liverpool and Melbourne Victory.

Red Devils fans have lauded the midfielder's displays during pre-season as they likened him to namesake Zinedine.

Iqbal, who signed a long-term contract at Old Trafford last month, made his first team against Young Boys in the Champions League in December.

And the Iraq international could now be handed a spot in Ten Hag's starting XI for their clash with the Eagles at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Here SunSport takes a look at how United face Patrick Vieira's men.

The midfield combination of Scott McTominay and Fred was a source of frustration again for Paul Scholes, who gave his verdict to BT Sport during the match, but Wenger believes the Brazilian ace gave United a platform to spark up the important win.
