Premier League: Everton vs Manchester United Live Stream
Preview
Everton face Manchester United at Goodison Park in their first Premier League match after a 10-point deduction for breaching the league’s Profit and Sustainability rules. The deduction has dropped Everton into the relegation zone, while Manchester United aim to maintain consistency following an inconsistent run before the international break. The match is scheduled for Sunday at 4:30 pm GMT.
Ahead of the international break, Everton secured three wins out of four games, including a five-goal thriller against Crystal Palace. However, their momentum hit a roadblock when they were penalized with a severe 10-point deduction due to alleged financial losses. This deduction leaves them in 19th place, with only goal difference preventing them from occupying the bottom spot. Despite recent positive performances, the Toffees must now tackle the challenge of relegation and manage the distractions stemming from the points penalty, while seeking a much-needed boost in their upcoming matches.
Manchester United’s season has been inconsistent, marked by as many defeats as victories, including a recent Champions League loss to FC Copenhagen. Despite this, they have secured four wins from their last five Premier League matches, none of which were dominant victories. These wins have placed them sixth in the league standings. Their offensive struggles persist, with only 13 goals scored, the lowest among the top half teams. However, they have the chance to secure four consecutive away league wins for the first time since 2020, facing Everton, whom they have defeated in their last three encounters.
Head-to-Head
In their previous five league encounters, Manchester United secured two wins and two draws, while Everton managed just one victory in that period.
Prediction
Everton, fueled by the impact of their points deduction, aim to challenge a weakened Manchester United. Dyche’s side feels aggrieved and will press United from start to finish. With recent offensive and injury struggles, United might face difficulty at Goodison Park, possibly settling for a draw.
