Manchester United will visit Everton at Goodison Park today (Sunday) in the Premier League.
The Toffees have strung a six-match unbeaten run in the Premier League and will have their eyes on a big scalp this weekend.
The Red Devils’ four-match winning run in the Premier League came to a halt last week as Manchester City handed them a thrashing, with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden netting a hat-trick each, showing that Erik ten Hag has a lot of work to do on his current Manchester United squad.
On the other hand, Everton escaped a relegation scare last season. But this season, they have looked solid, especially at the back.
They leaked a whopping 66 goals last term, but the timely arrival of Conor Coady and James Tarkowski has been an instant hit as the duo has worked tirelessly to solidify the gap in the Toffees’ backline.
Goals have been scarce to come, but the bedrock for a successful season always lies in defensive rigidity. After eight matches, Everton have managed to implement their philosophy, conceding the least number of goals among in the Premier League.
