The fourth week of the Premier League season begins with Manchester United and Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday. Everton hasn’t been in the best of form so far this year, but they could surprise United with the home advantage.
Manchester United has six wins in the last 10 matches with Everton, including two wins at Goodison Park. Everton has the upper-hand recently after beating United 3-1 at home last season in the Premiership and on penalties in the FA Cup. Everton has also drawn another match in front of the home crowd.
Everton has two losses and one draw in the Premier League so far this season. The club has two wins, two losses and a draw in the last five matches, with both wins coming against soft teams. Everton has nine goals in that time span, but just one in the Premiership so far. Fortunately, they have let in only four goals in that period. Manchester United has three wins, one loss and a draw in the last five matches. They are unbeaten in the Premier League this season, but haven’t won an away game. United has 13 goals in the past five games, while letting in only six.
No matter what, don’t expect Everton to give up easily against Manchester United at Goodison Park given recent history. We might even see an upset but the draw is more likely, so the wise bet is to lay United.
