Crystal Palace defeats Manchester United 2-0, Tottenham ends losing streak against Brentford

Manchester United faced another disappointing home defeat, losing 2-0 to Crystal Palace at Old Trafford. Jean-Philippe Mateta scored both goals for Palace, who have now won four of their last seven league matches, moving above United in the table. United's manager Ruben Amorim opted to start without a natural striker, a decision that backfired, leaving the team lacking creativity and defensive stability. Meanwhile, Tottenham ended their winless streak with a 2-0 victory over Brentford, thanks to an own goal from Vitaly Janelt and a late strike from Pape Sarr, moving them up to 14th place. This win eased pressure on Spurs' manager Ange Postecoglou as the team looks to regain form after a series of poor performances. Both teams are seeking to improve their standings as they navigate a challenging Premier League season.
