This afternoon, Manchester United face Everton in a crucial Premier League clash, placing manager Erik ten Hag once again under scrutiny following consecutive defeats. After last week’s 3-1 loss to Manchester City and the prior defeat to Fulham, United find themselves trailing fourth-place Aston Villa by 11 points in the league standings.
In a bid to reignite their top-four ambitions, United aim to overcome Everton, who themselves are struggling, having not won in their last 10 Premier League outings. Despite a recent reduction in their points penalty, Everton’s on-field performance has been lacking, evident in their recent home loss to West Ham.
While United secured a comfortable 3-0 victory at Goodison Park earlier in the season, routine wins at Old Trafford have been elusive for Ten Hag’s side. The question remains whether Everton can capitalize on United’s recent vulnerabilities and secure vital points in their battle against relegation.
