Man Utd v Everton – Preview, Predictions and Best Bets

The Red Devils have won five of their last nine matches. The Toffees have four wins in 11 EPL matches but they’re the third-lowest scorers in the division.

Match: Man Utd v Everton
When: Monday, 24 Nov 2025

Man Utd Form

Man Utd seem to have finally absorbed coach Ruben Amorim’s ideas. Their last nine fixtures have seen five wins, starting with a 3-2 victory over Burnley with 3.63 xG produced. After losing 3-0 at Man City, a high-tempo display brought a 2-1 win over ten-man Chelsea.

United went to Brentford and lost 3-1 in a poor display before winning three EPL matches in a row. They beat Sunderland 2-0, won 2-1 away at Liverpool and beat Brighton 4-2 at home. Their last two matches have ended in 2-2 draws, away at Nottingham Forest and at Tottenham as they twice scored late equalisers.

Man Utd Team News

Central defender Lisandro Martinez has had three weeks of training and could be involved. Kobbie Mainoo should also be back in contention, but he won’t start.  

Harry Maguire is carrying a thigh injury and won’t play for at least two more weeks. Benjamin Sesko is injured up front so Matheus Cunha will play centrally. Mason Mount could start if Amad Diallo returns to a wingback role.

Man Utd Motivation

The Red Devils look far more confident of late. They have more belief and cohesion in attack in recent weeks.

Man Utd will play to win this match. A draw would feel like a poor result at home.

Everton Form

The Toffees are struggling on their travels with three losses in the last four away fixtures. Their 12 goals scored is the third-least in the Premier League this season. At home, they’ve won three of their six matches this term. A 2-1 home win over Crystal Palace saw Jack Grealish score a 93rd-minute winner.

They lost 2-0 at Man City with just 29% possession and one shot on target. A 3-0 home loss to Tottenham saw them allow just seven shots. A 1-1 draw at Sunderland saw them outshot 17-8 before returning to winning ways. A 2-0 home win over Fulham saw them allow just 0.40 xG.

Everton Team News

David Moyes has three injuries to deal with. Jarrad Brathwaite is still out with a hamstring injury and Nathan Patterson will play no part. Merlin Rohl is also ruled out.

Everton may consider recalling Jack O’Brien at right back and moving James Garner back into midfield. Thierno Barry and Beto are competing for the number nine role, but neither is looking convincing.

Everton Motivation

Moyes will be highly motivated to pull off a shock at Old Trafford. A draw would be a good result, but they will try to nick a win.

Expect low possession numbers and a focus being solid. Fast counters and set-pieces will be the main source of goal threat.
