Manchester United are set to cross paths with former manager David Moyes this Sunday when they head to the Hill Dickinson Stadium for a Premier League clash against Everton. Moyes’ brief, disappointing nine-month stint at Old Trafford – during which he coached current United boss Michael Carrick – is best left in the past, a sentiment Everton fans might share regarding their own upcoming season after a disastrous transfer window left them with a squad of just 18 outfield players.

Picking up four points from their first two fixtures gives Everton a solid platform to build on, placing them above United in the current table. A dominant 5-2 victory over Ipswich Town went a long way toward making amends for a humiliating opening-weekend defeat at Hull City, but Carrick and his squad still have plenty of work ahead of them.

United came away victorious in their only previous visit to the Hill Dickinson last season, courtesy of a single goal from Benjamin Šeško. However, the return fixture proved far less enjoyable for them, with a 10-man Everton side digging deep to claim a hard-fought 1–0 win at Old Trafford.

Everton vs. Man Utd Correct Score Prediction

Manchester United put some past struggles behind them with a resounding win over Ipswich last weekend, and the expectation is that they will build momentum following a shaky start. While a return to Champions League action looms next Thursday, a scheduled home fixture against Azerbaijani newcomers Sabah means they can direct their full concentration toward a tricky trip to Merseyside first.

Everton are rarely an easy side to get past, even in chaotic times, and their recent performances – a win against Crystal Palace alongside a draw with Bournemouth – have shown plenty of promise. However, after losing Iliman Ndiaye, Beto, Tim Iroegbunam, and Nathan Patterson late in the transfer window, their squad depth has taken a severe hit, a vulnerability that could prove costly against United.

  • United’s attacking muscle: Although they won only once across their opening two Premier League fixtures, no side generated more expected goals (6.6), recorded more touches inside the opponent’s penalty area (85), or created more clear-cut opportunities (11) than the Red Devils in those initial rounds.
  • The Fernandes factor: Having been contained by a resolute Hull defense, Ipswich were completely dismantled by Bruno Fernandes in the following match. The Portuguese captain netted a hat-trick while setting up another goal, and his track record against Everton stands at 11 goal contributions in 13 past league appearances.
  • Head-to-head record: United have historically fared well in this matchup, claiming victory in seven of the previous nine encounters across all competitions. Meanwhile, the Toffees have managed just two wins over the Red Devils in the current decade.

Prediction: Everton 2-1 Man Utd
