Everton vs. Manchester United: Premier League – Match Preview

Two sides in need of a win meet on Saturday as Everton host Manchester United.

Everton are without a win in their last three matches and were beaten at Newcastle United last time out.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored again, however it wasn’t enough as Callum Wilson scored twice for the hosts.

Manchester United have had a nightmare week, suffering a 1-0 defeat at home to Arsenal in the league.

They followed that up with an awful display in the Champions League, going down to a 2-1 defeat away to Istanbul Basaksehir.
