The Premier League weekend gets underway at Old Trafford on Saturday, as Man United welcome Everton to the Theatre of Dreams. There will be pressure on both teams to get their season back on track, with the hosts coming into this showdown after losing each of their last two.
Before Betting On Man United vs Everton
It feels as though Erik ten Hag has been under pressure at Man United throughout the season. The Red Devils remain in the fight for a Champions League finish this term, but this will be a must-win showdown for the home team after suffering defeats in each of their last two fixtures. Their most recent loss was suffered away from home against Man City.
Everton will also have a desperate need to pick up points this weekend. The Toffees sit just outside the relegation places coming into this round of matches, but they are without a victory in their last ten league fixtures. This is their longest winless run since 1994, and they are currently on the longest winless sequence in the Premier League.
United boast a fine record in this fixture after winning their last three against the Toffees. However, the Red Devils haven’t recorded four straight league wins against their rivals since December 2007. Meanwhile, Everton have won on just one from 30 Premier League visits to Old Trafford.
United have recorded 40 Premier League wins against the Toffees, which is their most against a single side in the competition. However, it is worth noting that the Red Devils have already suffered eleven defeats this term. They have only lost more games in two Premier League seasons.
Man United vs Everton Offshore Odds
Everton have the defensive structure to make this a very challenging fixture for Man United this weekend. However, it is hard to overlook the Red Devils from landing maximum points, but that may only be achieved by a one-goal margin.
