Manchester United makes their trip to Goodison Park for a Premier League 2020-21 Saturday lunchtime clash with Everton.
Match Timings: Nov 07, 6 PM
Team Preview
After facing back-to-back defeats, Everton and United face each other to get back on the winning track. The Red Devils’ story has been a roller-coaster thriller. Their weak numbers at Old Trafford doesn’t match with their excellent record in away matches. Their form in Premier League and Champions League is going differently. However, the form in both competitions stayed at one point on Wednesday after United’s first loss in Champions League against Istanbul Basaksehir.
In Premier League, they are already in the shock of 1-0 defeat to Arsenal. Red Devils picked up just seven points from 6 matches this season, and victory against Merseyside will send them in the top four for a shorter period. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side suffered their first loss on the road in 19 games, and the winning streak finally ended. In the Premier League, they have won each game of their six away matches. United haven’t scored a goal in their last two Premier League matches (0-0 vs. Chelsea & 0-1 vs. Arsenal).
Everton started the campaign high, but some errors put them behind Liverpool and Leicester in the table. The struggling attack of United can fancy their chances to get three points at Goodison Park on Saturday. They are winless in their last three matches after an eight-matches unbeaten streak in all competitions at the beginning of the season. They shared a point with Liverpool, courtesy of Dominic Calvert’s 81st-minute equaliser. In the next outings, they suffered defeats to Southampton and Newcastle United, respectively. Carlo Ancelotti’s men are unbeaten against Man United in their last three meetings. In the previous season, both matches ended in a 1-1 draw.
