Everton v Man Utd – Stats Preview

Everton host Manchester United at Goodison Park on Saturday, February 22 (kick-off 12.30pm) in a Premier League clash that is hard to predict, given the contrasting form and fortunes of the two sides.

Everton, under returning manager David Moyes, have experienced a resurgence, winning four of their last five Premier League matches, lifting them to 14th place in the table with 30 points, one point ahead of Man Utd in 15th. The Toffees have scored 12 goals in their last five games, a stark improvement from their earlier struggles. They have also scored at least twice in each of their last three home games, showcasing newfound attacking potency.

United are enduring a difficult season under Ruben Amorim. With 12 defeats in 25 Premier League matches — their worst start since the 1973-74 relegation campaign — they have struggled for consistency. They have lost eight of their last twelve league games and failed to score in ten matches this season, highlighting offensive issues. Despite this, they have won their last two away games against Everton and will hope to extend that streak.

Head-to-head, Manchester United dominate historically with 22 wins in the last 38 meetings compared to Everton’s seven. United have also won the last five encounters between the two sides, keeping clean sheets in four of those matches. History my be in their favour but current form is not and we are predicting a home win.
