The Premier League returns for another weekend full of stacked top flight action as we gear up for the final few months of the campaign. It’s pretty clear at this point what everyone is aiming for from top to bottom, but there are still plenty of twists and turns awaiting us on that journey. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be a fun encounter between Manchester United and Everton.
Manchester United Form GuideManchester United supporters have spent the last decade experiencing brief moments of joy, but for the most part, their inconsistency has really hurt them on the pitch. Erik ten Hag is the latest manager to try and make a difference at Old Trafford, but there are still far more questions than answers for the Red Devils as we approach a critical few months for them.
In their derby day clash with Manchester City, United started really brightly and even managed to take the lead. Unfortunately for them, they weren’t able to sustain it in the second half, with the champions taking over as they registered a solid 3-1 win.
Everton Form GuideEverton manager Sean Dyche isn’t the kind of guy to let his team go quietly into the night. With that in mind, and with their legal situation still ongoing with the Premier League, we’d argue that the club feeling ‘slighted’ could really help them in the months that lie ahead. There’s no guarantee of survival in a division like this one, but we still think they’re on the right track.
Everton, by all accounts, were the dominant side for long spells in their clash with West Ham. They took the lead early in the second half but after a quick Zouma equaliser, the Hammers went on to score twice in injury time to ensure they left with a 3-1 victory.
Match PredictionEverton are a tricky side to face given the desperate nature of their situation, but in equal measure, the Red Devils are very touch and go - especially at Old Trafford. We expect this to be a hard-fought brawl, with Manchester United grabbing a late winner to secure all three points.
