Manchester United vs Everton preview, prediction, team news and head-to-head

The Red Devils have experienced a resurgence in recent weeks, and they will be hoping to stop the Toffees, who are unbeaten in their last two matches.

Manchester United are experiencing a good run of form under Ruben Amorim, unbeaten in their last five matches (W3, D2), but their last two outings have been emotional swings.

The Red Devils have taken the lead, fallen behind, and still avoided defeat in each of their last two matches, picking up 2-2 draws against Nottingham Forest and Tottenham.

United now return to the comfort of their home, where they won four straight league matches, picking up more home points than in their previous 13 home games.

Everton, meanwhile, earned a confidence boost with a 2-0 win over Fulham, even after having three goals ruled out for offside.

It was only their second victory in nine matches in all competitions, yet David Moyes’ side remain positioned midway between the top and bottom three.

However, the Toffees are winless in their last nine Monday Premier League games (D5, L4), a run that hints they may be glancing over their shoulder rather than pushing upward.

No Premier League side have picked up more wins against a single opponent than Manchester United over Everton (42), and the Red Devils have lost just one of the last 12 league meetings against the Toffees (W6, D5).

Everton have struggled on their trips to Old Trafford, winning just one of their last 32 top-flight games there, though it was under Moyes in 2013-14 (D8, L23).
