Energetic Manchester United Look To Earn Revenge Against Unpredictable Everton

The Everton vs Manchester United matches normally tend to be highly eventful ones and this upcoming one at the Hill Dickinson Stadium should be nothing different!

Everton have only won two of their last five matches and have only won four of their 13 matches at home in the 2025/26 season, which includes their recent loss to Bournemouth in their new home ground.

David Moyes will need to motivate his players to fix their issues and produce some entertaining attacking football, as well as being defensively compact to frustrate the Red Devils.

Manchester United are still unbeaten under Michael Carrick, having won four of the five under him, but their performance in the recent draw against West Ham United left much to be desired.

Carrick will need to ensure his side are sharper and much more efficient in the final third to torment this sturdy Everton side and get back to winning ways. Manchester United have won three of their last five against Everton, but are winless in their previous two meetings, and they’ll have to produce a really clinical performance to end their drought against the Toffees.

Could Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall Come Back To Haunt Manchester United Again?

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has proven to be an inspired signing for Everton this season, managing seven goal contributions (five goals, two assists) in 19 appearances for them. One of those goals were also incidentally the winning goal for Everton in their 1-0 victory over the Red Devils at Old Trafford earlier this campaign.

Well, Dewsbury-Hall is now aiming to make it two out of two against Manchester United as he looks to be an unpredictable factor for his side. He’ll look to not only move the ball forward quickly, but also get at the end of chances and put in efficient finishing touches to undo the Red Devils backline and help his side get another positive result against them.

Maverick Matheus Cunha Determined To Regain Goal-Scoring Form for Manchester United

Matheus Cunha has adjusted really nicely to Michael Carrick’s system at Manchester United, scoring two goals and bagging an assist in the five games under the interim boss. Cunha is not entirely comfortable in the left wing role, but he is at least getting the freedom to try his luck and be a thorn for defenders.

Cunha will look to regain his best form against Everton, with the Red Devils’ No.10 looking to be sharp with his movement and use his dribbling skills to march his side into the danger areas. He’ll aim to use his unpredictable long-distance shooting skills to fool Jordan Pickford and also be smarter with his final third delivery to add an element of surprise to Manchester United’s attack and help them get a big away win.
