Despite missing the Crystal Palace match, Ronaldo will still finish as United’s EPL top scorer this season with 18 goals in 30 Premier League matches.

While United’s face Crystal Palace on Sunday, Ronaldo will use this time to regain fitness.
The Portuguese is still expected to join the Portugal national squad for their upcoming Nations League matches.
