Jones Knows' prediction

Everton are a big price here at 5/1, aren't they?

Carlo Ancelotti's team won't win any awards for their style of football, but they have won seven of their opening 10 Premier League away games, including the last four on the bounce.

Only Tottenham and Manchester City have conceded fewer goals on the road than Everton's 10 this season as Ancelotti has shown his experience and tactical nous to make the Toffees a team with great defensive unity. They'll surely set-up to stifle United, who still don't look comfortable trying to break down well-oiled defences at home.

If you rid the freakish win over Southampton from your minds, then it's very hard to get carried away with United's record when asked to make the running in games. In home matches against West Brom, Wolves and Sheffield United, they scored just three goals and managed only one at Old Trafford when faced with Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham. They have also conceded 15 goals at home in the league so far this season - more than at this stage in any

previous Premier League campaign. And the expected goals against figure of 13.5 backs that poor metric up.

Everton are capable of frustrating the hosts and using their countering skills with Richarlison and Lucas Digne down the left, plus their big threat from set-pieces, to make this a tricky evening for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

• Manchester United have lost one of their last 27 home Premier League games against Everton (W20 D6), a 1-0 defeat in 2013/14 under David Moyes.
• Everton's only win in their last 11 Premier League matches against Manchester United was a 4-0 victory at Goodison Park in April 2019 under Marco Silva (D4 L6).
• Since a run of six Premier League matches without a win at Old Trafford, Manchester United have won five of their last seven home games in the competition (D1 L1), scoring 20 goals and conceding just five.
• Everton are looking to win five consecutive away league games for the first time since April 1970 under Harry Catterick, a season which saw them win their seventh top-flight title.

• Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti has led two teams to victories at Old Trafford, winning with Milan in February 2005 and Chelsea in April 2010. Ancelotti could be only the second manager to win away to Manchester United with three different teams in the Premier League era, after José Mourinho (Chelsea, Real Madrid, Spurs).
• Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes ended a run of five Premier League matches without a goal or assist against Southampton, scoring once and assisting two more. Fernandes netted his 10th penalty goal in what was his 36th appearance, the fastest player to reach that tally in appearances since Andy Johnson in April 2005 (32nd appearance).
• Man Utd forward Anthony Martial has been directly involved in nine goals in his last 11 appearances against Everton in all competitions (6 goals, 3 assists), scoring and assisting as a substitute in their 2-0 win in the League Cup earlier this season.
• Man Utd's Anthony Martial has scored in his last five Premier League appearances on a Monday, with the first game in this run coming against Everton in January 2018. The only player in Premier League history to score in six consecutive Monday appearances is Ian Wright between 1996 and 1998.
