Having won three games on the bounce, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side will want to keep the momentum going and gain three points against struggling Everton, who are only two points off the relegation zone and who have conceded 28 Premier League goals already this season.
Everton, having sacked Marco Silva earlier this month, looked completely rejuvenated and revitalised under interim boss Duncan Ferguson, as they beat Chelsea 3-1 at home last weekend. The Toffees, though, are just two points above the relegation zone and will be keen on bagging another upset win this weekend and move upwards in the standings.
