A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 5th and 14th place in the table will show on the pitch.
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Europa League. This match was also played here at Old Trafford. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Everton have had more rest.
Manchester United form and stats
Overall Premier League stats at home this season for Manchester United are 4-3-1 (wins-draw-losses).
The Manchester United supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host AZ Alkmaar in Europa League and win 4-0. A strong away win before that one, visiting Manchester City and winning 2-1.
As mentioned above, Manchester United "killed" AZ Alkmaar in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Manchester United matches with similar probabilities have ended with 2 wins, 0 draws and 0 defeats (from two games).
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Carabao Cup game versus Colchester United in only three days. This game is also played here at Old Trafford.
The Manchester United fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 15 goals in 8 league matches. 8 goals have been conceded.
Everton form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Everton so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-6 (win-draw-lose). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Everton have lost on their last two travels.
Everton are travelling after their nice 3-1 home win in the Premier League against Chelsea (placed 4th). A 2-5 defeat away at Liverpool before that.
Looking at the earlier recent performances of Everton when being an outsider away as they are today, we find one match with the visitors losing 1 time, drawing 0 and winning 0 games.
A new game in only three days for Everton, the Carabao Cup home match versus Leicester City. Busy days.
