Manchester United host Everton at Old Trafford on Monday aiming to make it six games unbeaten and four wins in that run.
WATCH —Manchester United v Everton
Ruben Amorim’s United appear to have turned the corner in a big way in recent weeks with three wins in a row followed up by two draws on the road, including a spirited draw at Spurs before the break. United’s players look much more comfortable in their 3-4-2-1 system and the attacking trio of Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo are causing opponents all kinds of problems.
Everton have been very solid under David Moyes this season, as they sit just three points behind Man United in the table after securing a comfortable home win against Fulham before the break. Everton have only won once away from home so far this season and Moyes needs plenty more production from his forwards as Beto and Barry continue to struggle.

Manchester United team news, focus
Benjamin Sesko is definitely out but Amorim has confirmed it’s not a major issue and the Slovenian striker will be back in a “few weeks” after pulling up late on in the dramatic draw at Spurs. Harry Maguire is also out after being injured against Spurs, so Lenny Yoro is set to come in at center back. Kobbie Mainoo should be fit to be on the bench, while Lisandro Martinez is close to his long-awaited return from injury. United will likely go with Cunha up top and the duo of Mbeumo and Amad underneath him to cause chaos with their interchanging and direct running.
Everton team news, focus
Jarrad Branthwaite and Nathan Patterson remain out for Everton as Moyes has a very settled lineup. The attacking trio of Jack Grealish, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Iliman Ndiaye have been exceptional, but Moyes has been rotating Beto and Thierno Barry up top this season but they have just one goal between them. That needs to change if Everton are going to be serious contenders for European qualification.
Manchester United vs Everton prediction
This is going to be tight and tense but United are much more confident now, and Cunha and Mbeumo will cause Everton too many problems. Manchester United 2-1 Everton.
