Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Sunday’s football game at Goodison Park pits together Everton and Manchester United, the two teams with entirely different ambitions for the 2023/2024 Premier League season. The Toffees are desperate to secure yet another elite division survival, but keep in mind that they have been deducted ten points due to the financial problems. As a result, Everton aim to escape the relegation zone and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against Man Utd. The likes of Amadou Onana, Andre Gomes, Dele Alli, and Seamus Coleman are out of contention with injuries for the home side.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Fulham and Luton Town. Manchester United aim to move closer to the Champions League berth and seeing that they will go for a win as well, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. As for the away side, Denmark striker Rasmus Hojlund is a major doubt, while all Jonny Evans, Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen, and Casemiro miss out with injuries.
