Manchester United vs Everton Prediction
🔊 Will David Moyes' visit to Manchester bring him positive emotions? The final match of the 12th round of the Premier League takes place at Old Trafford, where Ruben Amorim's side, clear favorites, host Everton. The Red Devils have deprived their devoted internet-famous fan of the chance to get a haircut, yet the fan remains hopeful. It's time for United to kick off a new winning streak. Let's discuss whether they can achieve this.
Head-to-Head
📊 Everton have proven to be a favorable opponent for Manchester United. The Red Devils last suffered a defeat against the Toffees in 2022, and since then, they've gone eight matches unbeaten. On home turf during this stretch, United consistently secure victories, often scoring more than two goals per game.
H2H Stats Matches and Previous Teams Results
Manchester United Team Overview
Manchester have slowed down, yet they continue to consistently collect points. The team remains unbeaten since the start of October, extending their streak to five consecutive matches. This is the first time such a run has occurred under Ruben Amorim. However, as October progresses, victories have been elusive, and worrying trends are emerging.
The issue at hand is that the Red Devils have had to salvage draws in the dying moments twice in a row. Against Nottingham (2-2) and Tottenham (2-2), they managed to avoid defeat, but in both cases, United scored first. The problem lies in their defensive vulnerabilities, as they have allowed too much at the back, significantly falling short in xG compared to both the Spurs and the Forest.

Everton Team Overview
Everton continue to be a team that doesn't contend for anything significant. The summer reinforcements have bolstered the Toffees' attack, yet overall, their results haven't improved. David Moyes' side can't boast a consistent point tally or consistently high-quality performances.
For instance, in early November, they drew with Sunderland (1-1), but they were objectively weaker and should thank the referee for a few contentious decisions that went their way. On the other hand, they defeated Fulham (2-0) in the last round with overwhelming dominance. This is understandable, as the Blues are indeed strong at home. At their new stadium, they've only lost once-to Tottenham (0-3).

Latest news
Manchester United
📝 Paul Hirst from The Times reports that Sir Jim Ratcliffe is pleased with how Ruben Amorim is handling his responsibilities. The club is still far from the positions the owner envisions, but the management believes that the coach's performance should only be assessed after two summer transfer windows.
❌ Lisandro Martinez, Harry Maguire, and Kobbie Mainoo are not ready for the upcoming match, although all three are close to returning. Meanwhile, Benjamin Sesko, according to Ruben Amorim, is sidelined for several weeks.
Everton
📝 It seems Everton are eager to bring in another high-profile player looking to revive his career. The talk is about James Ward-Prowse, whom David Moyes personally invited to West Ham during his tenure with the Hammers. According to scout Mick Brown, the Scotsman is keen on having the 31-year-old midfielder join the Toffees.
❌ The visitors face three absences. Nathan Patterson and Jarrad Branthwaite are regulars in the injury list. Merlin Röhl recently made his way out but has returned due to a hernia operation. He won't be back on the pitch until December.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
Overseeing the match will be Tony Harrington, who averages 3.8 yellow cards per game in the current Premier League season. In his last 20 matches, this figure rises slightly to 4.1. Harrington's statistics suggest a bet on over 3.5 yellow cards, a wager that has come through in six consecutive home matches for Manchester United in the Premier League.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Focusing on trends, Manchester United have scored before halftime in 7 out of their last 8 head-to-heads with Everton, as well as in their last seven Premier League fixtures. The Red Devils have netted 11 goals in the first half-more than any other team in the league. It's hard to see how the Toffees can withstand the hosts' onslaught. A bet on Manchester United to score in the first half appears highly promising.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Both Manchester United and Everton rank low in the Premier League for average corners per game, with figures of 3.82 and 4.09 respectively. Therefore, there's little reason to expect a high number of corner kicks. Based on this logic, we suggest betting on under 10.5 corners, a result that has been recorded in seven consecutive home games for the Red Devils.
Editor's Prediction
A crucial point to consider is Everton's poor away form this season, with just one road victory against Wolverhampton (3-2), and even that was not without its struggles. Manchester, on the other hand, have won four consecutive home games and generally look more confident, with Amorim's squad clearly riding a wave of positive momentum. Therefore, we believe the hosts will prevail with a 3-1 scoreline.
Based on this, our main bet is on Manchester United's individual total over 1.5 goals. The Red Devils have surpassed this mark not only in their last five league matches but also in their previous eight head-to-head encounters with Everton. The loss of Benjamin Šeško is unfortunate, yet we don't expect it to critically impact the team's attacking prowess.
