Manchester United will face Cole Palmer in the upcoming Premier League match against Chelsea on Halloween, despite the midfielder's recent dismissal in the match against Tottenham.
Palmer was sent off during a 2-0 defeat to Spurs after receiving two yellow cards within nine minutes of the second half. However, his automatic one-match ban for the red card will apply to Chelsea's upcoming League Cup clash against Liverpool at Anfield.
As disciplinary measures for red cards affect both Premier League and domestic cup competitions, Palmer will be available to play against Manchester United. The English midfielder has already made an impact in the League Cup, scoring a quickfire double in just three minutes during a victory against Leeds (6-3).
Meanwhile, Manchester United have already been eliminated from the League Cup, squandering a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 to Brighton. This defeat marked the first time in 50 years that the Red Devils have lost at home after leading by two goals.
