Ruben Amorim's Man Utd take on Everton on Sunday
Manchester United host Everton at Old Trafford in Ruben Amorim's first Premier League home fixture.
Amorim, who left Sporting CP last month to become United manager, took charge of his first game in England last week in a disappointing 1-1 draw away at Ipswich Town. The Portuguese stepped into the Old Trafford dugout for the first time for Thursday’s Europa League clash with Bodo/Glimt.
Now, having had to wait patiently, Amorim will finally manage a Premier League in front of the United faithful. He takes on Sean Dyche’s Everton in the hope of securing a maiden Premier League win, with the Red Devils in desperate need of three points to ascend the table.
They face a Toffees side that were booed off the pitch by their own fans after a 0-0 draw with 10-man Brentford last time out. But fans in the UK won't be able to watch the match on TV.

Why is Man Utd vs Everton not on TV in UK?
The fixture, which was initially meant to be United’s last outing of November, was moved to Sunday, November 1, due to United’s Europa League commitments midweek. With their game against Bodo/Glimt being played on Thursday night, playing again on Saturday was deemed too quick of a turnaround for the squad.
United’s clash with Everton will not be televised by Sky Sports, with the broadcaster instead opting to show Chelsea vs Aston Villa for the same kick-off spot of 1.30pm. Villa’s visit to Stamford Bridge will be shown on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, and will be followed on the same channels by Liverpool vs Manchester City at 4pm.
From next season, all games that aren't scheduled for 3pm on Saturday will be broadcast live in the UK as part of the Premier League's new TV deal.
