Preview: Rejuvenated Man United travel to Everton’s Hill Dickinson StadiumShareEverton are unbeaten against Manchester United over their past three meetings, but are winless at their new home since early December.By Filip MishovFormer United manager, David Moyes, faces his former player, Michael CarrickEverton went into their two-week break with a lot of areas to work on after suffering a comeback defeat to AFC Bournemouth last time out home, which only continued the Merseyside club’s poor form since the turn of the year. The David Moyes-led squad is one of the lowest scoring in the Premier League and only five teams (all from the bottom half of the table) have scored fewer goals (29) after 26 rounds played. With the Toffees celebrating only a couple of wins, both on the road, from eight matches across all competitions in 2026 (2W, 3D, 3L), the Blues are sitting in ninth place and eight points behind United, who occupy fifth place.ScreenshotFresh from winning the Premier League’s Manager of the Month award for January, Michael Carrick is strengthening his case for staying at the helm on a permanent basis . Even though the Englishman’s honeymoon start was halted by West Ham at the London Stadium, Manchester United are on a five-match unbeaten run under his guidance, and the Red Devils remain the only undefeated side in the top flight during 2026.However, Bruno Fernandes & co. have struggled away from Old Trafford this season, and with just four wins, six draws and three losses, accompanied by a neutral goal difference, being some cause for concern.Key playersJames Garner starred at the Theatre of Dreams back in November last year with the 10-man Everton coming away victorious and the Carrington graduate is deservedly catching the eye of England manager Thomas Tuchel ahead of the March international break. With that being said, the versatile midfielder whose idol is interestingly, Steven Gerrard, is the Blues’ highest-rated (7.45) player this season. He also leads the Everton squad in terms of accurate passes per 90 (41.2), big chances created (9) and interceptions per 90 (1.5), which speaks volumes about his quality on and off the ball.Benjamin Šeško is continuing to impress of late but the talented striker is still waiting for his first start under Carrick despite earning United four points over the past three matches with his goals. Only Bryan Mbeumo (9) has scored more league goals (6) and the Slovenian is averaging 1.9 shots on target per 90, with only the current leading goalscorer, Erling Haaland, boasting a better record for this metric in the Premier League. Is it the right time to unleash Šeško from the first whistle?Team newsMatthijs de Ligt remains sidelined with a back injury and the Dutch centre-back is targeting a return next month alongside Patrick Dorgu, while Mason Mount is getting closer to being fit.For Everton, Jake O’Brien is suspended after getting sent off against the Cherries, while Jack Grealish underwent foot surgery and is out for the season.ScreenshotPredictionEverton have scored more than one goal in a match only twice so far in 2026, and although I do not rule out Iliman Ndiaye & co. finding a way past Senne Lammens, Manchester United have enough firepower to record a debut win at the Hill Dickinson Stadium and move back in to the top four and closer to the leading trio in the table.(Cover image from IMAGO)You can follow every game from the Premier League with FotMob this season – featuring deep stats coverage, xG, player ratings.
