The Premier League Summer Series returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Everton lock horns with Ruben Amorim's Manchester United side in an intriguing encounter at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Sunday. Both teams have been inconsistent over the past year and will want to win this game.
Manchester United vs Everton Preview
Everton finished in 13th place in the Premier League standings last season and were unable to make the most of the resources at their disposal over the course of their campaign. The Toffees suffered a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of West Ham United in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
Manchester United, on the other hand, finished in 15th place in the league table last season and have struggled in the Premier League in recent years. The Red Devils thrashed Bournemouth by a 4-1 margin this week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Manchester United vs Everton Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Manchester United have a good historical record against Everton and have won 96 out of the 215 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Everton's 71 victories.
Manchester United are unbeaten in their last four matches in all competitions and have won three of these games, with their previous defeat coming by a 1-0 margin in a friendly encounter against ASEAN All-Stars in May this year.

Manchester United are unbeaten in their last seven matches against Everton in all competitions but were held to a draw in their previous such game.
Manchester United vs Everton Prediction
Manchester United have shown marked improvement under Ruben Amorim on their pre-season tour and will look to make the most of their two remaining friendlies ahead of the new season. Rasmus Hojlund and Amad Diallo have been impressive for the Red Devils and will look to make their mark this weekend.
Everton have been shockingly poor on their pre-season tour and have a point to prove going into this game. Manchester United are the better team at the moment, however, and hold the upper hand this weekend.

Aditya is a European and international football writer at Sportskeeda, covering previews, news, post-match articles and live blogs for 5 years. During his time here, he has had the privilege of covering a press meeting during the collaboration between his favorite club Bengaluru FC and Sevilla, where he got a chance to interact with Sevilla president Jose Castro and explore the grassroots development in his city.
Aditya started following the sport after being dazzled by Ronaldinho’s silky feet at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He is a Barcelona fan and unsurprisingly, his favorite manager and players are Pep Guardiola and Andres Iniesta respectively. He admires the latter for his superhuman talent and his off-pitch demeanor, and his winning goal in Spain’s 2010 World Cup final win over the Netherlands left a lasting impact on Aditya.
The match-preview specialist believes that his ongoing five-year stint at Sportskeeda has given him the ability to identify the distinct line between emotional and fact-based articles, which separates him from other journalists. For him, fact-checking is the most integral part of his writing process and he only relies on authentic platforms for data.
Aditya is a semi-professional pianist and likes to participate in concerts and recitals when not immersed in football.
