Man Utd v Everton Match Preview Saturday 8th April 2023

🕗 Saturday 8th of April, 12:30 GMT

This Saturday in the early kickoff in the Premier League, we see 4th-placed Manchester United take on 18th-placed Everton, a match where both teams need the win for very different reason. Manchester United will want to rediscover their consistent winning form to help ensure they get Champions League football next season. Everton will be looking to pick another three points up under Sean Dyche with the hope of moving one step closer to safety.

Head to head

In the previous two Premier League meetings between the two sides, both sides have been victorious. A 1-0 victory at Goodison Park in April 2022, the last time The Toffees registered a win over the Manchester club. The most recent Premier League fixture between these two famous sides ended in a 2-1 victory for Erik Ten Hag’s men, with goals from the now departed Cristiano Ronaldo and summer arrival Antony.

The Sean Dyche effect on Everton

Since Sean Dyche got appointed as Frank Lampards replacement on the 30th of January 2023, Everton have experienced an upturn in form, picking up 11 points from a possible 27, but remain 15th in the league after Michael Keane’s 90th minute thunderbolt equaliser against Tottenham on Monday night. Everton are currently one point above the relegation zone. In contrast, Lampard only managed 16 points from 20 Premier League matches during his tenure. The former Burnley boss has had a clear impact on and off the field. Reverting back to basics has been one of the main differences during his reign as Everton boss so far.

Players to watch

One to watch for Manchester United is a world-class player in the form of Marcus Rashford. This season we have seen a drastic change in his performances. Last season Rashford only registered four goals and two assists in the 25 games he featured in. Whereas this season, Rashford has significantly more goals (15) in 28 games he has played in so far. Keep an eye out for Demari Gray. He is Everton’s top goal scorer recording four goals in this Premier League season. Even though he hasn’t scored since the 5th of March against Nottingham Forest, Gray can be the one who turns draws into much-needed victories for the Toffees.

Manchester Uniteds Form

Manchester United have struggled to pick up wins recently, winning only two of their last five Premier League matches, which included losing to both Newcastle and Liverpool and a goalless draw at Old Trafford against bottom of the league side Southampton.

A game that saw Casemiro sent off for the second time this season. In Man United’s last match on Wednesday night, we saw a Rashford goal make it 1-0 and that was enough to secure the three points to get Man United back to winning ways against Brentford at Old Trafford.
