Martin Kelly returns to Palace training

Crystal Palace have had their injury list shortened after defender Martin Kelly returned to training on Tuesday.

The Eagles, who have a long list of absentees including fellow centre-backs Scott Dann and Mamadou Sakho, face Manchester United at Selhurst Park on Monday.

Palace boss Roy Hodgson is hopeful that Kelly could return to the side after recovering from a hamstring strain that kept him out for three weeks.

The 70-year-old could have James Tomkins back too, after he was forced off with cramp in the 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur last time out.

Palace gave a Premier League debut to Aaron Wan-Bissaka against Spurs due to their extensive injury list.
