Matchday 27 of the 2025-26 Premier League season finishes with a Monday night clash between Everton and Manchester United.
It is the Red Devils’ first visit to the new Hill Dickinson Stadium, and interim manager Michael Carrick is looking to preserve his unbeaten start to life back in the hot-seat.
Champions League qualification is beginning to look a distinct possibility for United, although a trip to Everton often represents a stumbling block for the big teams.
And the fact ex-Red Devils boss David Moyes is in charge of the Toffees only adds to the pre-game storylines.

Everton vs Manchester United Preview
Recent results
Both these sides enjoyed a weekend off after suffering FA Cup elimination last month, so each XI should be fresh.
Everton lost 2-1 at home to Bournemouth in their previous fixture, extending a worrying recent record on Merseyside. The Toffees’ last victory at the Hill Dickinson was the 3-0 success over Nottingham Forest on December 6, since suffering other failures against Arsenal (0-1), Brentford (2-4), Wolves (1-1) and Leeds (1-1). Moyes’ men did win 2-1 at Fulham in their last away fixture, though.
United’s four-match winning run came to an end at West Ham, with Benjamin Sesko’s stoppage-time strike salvaging a 1-1 draw. The Red Devils’ only other away match under Carrick’s rule saw them famously win 3-2 at Arsenal, with home triumphs over Fulham (3-2) and Tottenham (2-0) following that result.
Head-to-head record
Everton won 1-0 at Old Trafford earlier in the season thanks to a goal from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, a victory made sweeter by the fact the Toffees played with 10 men for most of the game after Idrissa Gueye’s red card.
It was the Toffees’ first win vs United in eight attempts, with last season’s fixture at Goodison Park – when Ruben Amorim was still in charge of the Red Devils – finishing 2-2.
Team news
Jack Grealish has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a foot injury, while Jake O’Brien is suspended for Everton following his straight red card vs Bournemouth. Veteran full-back Seamus Coleman should return to the squad.
Patrick Dorgu, Matthijs de Ligt and Mason Mount remain the three absentees for United, but the rest of the roster is available to Carrick for Monday’s match.
Everton vs Manchester United Odds
*All odds are subject to change

Everton vs Manchester United Betting Tips
Player to score or assist – Kiernan Dewsbury Hall @ 2.12
Dewsbury-Hall was the match winner in the reverse fixture, and his final-third role has grown in importance since Grealish’s injury lay-off. The versatile midfielder scored and assisted in the comeback win at Fulham, so we are backing him to deliver one or the other against United at a very good price.
Bryan Mbeumo to have over 0.5 shots on target @ 1.50
Mbeumo failed to have a shot on target against West Ham, ending a run of 14 consecutive Premier League games with at least one SOT. But we expect the United ace to get back on another streak here, especially in his newfound role as the No9.
Both teams to score – Yes @ 1.61
Games involving United are usually prime candidates for the BTTS market. Six of the last eight in the Premier League involving the Red Devils have seen both teams score, while this selection landed in each of Everton’s previous four top-flight encounters.
