Marouane Fellaini scored twice, while Juan Mata and Romelu Lukaku also netted as Manchester United recorded a 4-0 victory over struggling Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
The result has seen Man United move three points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table, with the second-place Citizens away to the champions Chelsea in the late kickoff.
Palace, meanwhile, remain rock bottom of the table on zero points, and the Eagles are now without a single goal in their opening seven Premier League matches of the 2017-18 campaign.
