Man Utd to win

Man Utd have beaten Everton in six of their last eight meetings.

Everton will take on Manchester United on Monday, 23 February, in a match of high stakes in the race for European football next season.

After Chelsea and Aston Villa dropped points on Saturday, the visitors know that a victory would move them three points clear of Chelsea and to within three points of the Villains.

Everton, meanwhile, will be buoyed by Brentford's defeat to Brighton as they look to pip the Bees to seventh position and a place in the Europa Conference League.

Everton vs Man Utd prediction: The Red Devils to walk away with all three points

Key Stats

  • Everton have failed to win any of their last six matches at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
  • Man Utd have won four of their five league matches under Michael Carrick.
  • Both teams have scored in each of Everton's last four Premier League matches.

Correct score prediction: Everton 1-2 Man Utd

Everton are a team who are clearly still adapting to life away from Goodison Park, so the last thing they need is a visit from one of the most in-form teams in the division. If United can start better than they did against West Ham, then they should be okay here.

Pre-game odds and win probability: The hosts are considered the underdogs

  • HOME: 5/2 (3.50) – 28.6%
  • DRAW: 27/10 (3.70) – 27%
  • AWAY: 19/20 (1.95) – 51.3%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

The Everton vs Man Utd odds are weighted in favour of the visitors, which isn't a great surprise when you consider Everton's home form this season. Ladbrokes have given the Toffees just a 28.6% chance of winning the match, while Man Utd have been given a 51.3% chance of victory.

Most recent H2Hs: Encouragement for both

While Man Utd have won six of their last eight matches against Everton, the Toffees did win the most recent encounter earlier this season at Old Trafford. David Moyes' side defied the odds by beating the Red Devils 1-0 despite playing the majority of the match with ten men.

Everton preview: In decent shape

David Moyes has close to a full-strength squad available on Monday night, with Jack Grealish, who will miss the rest of the season, his only injury absentee. Jack O'Brien is also unavailable after the full-back was sent off against Bournemouth last time out.

Predicted lineup: Pickford (GK), Coleman, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Gueye, Garner, Armstrong, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Barry

Last five results

  • 10/02/26: Everton 1-2 Bournemouth (Premier League)
  • 07/02/26: Fulham 1-2 Everton (Premier League)
  • 31/01/26: Brighton 1-1 Everton (Premier League)
  • 26/01/26: Everton 1-1 Leeds (Premier League)
  • 18/01/26: Aston Villa 0-1 Everton (Premier League)

Man Utd preview: Sesko to start?

After scoring a sublime equaliser in the dying minutes against West Ham last time out, Benjamin Sesko will feel that he is more than deserving of a start on Monday night. The only injury absentees for Man Utd are Mason Mount, Matthijs de Ligt, and Patrick Dorgu.

Predicted lineup: Lammens (GK), Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Mainoo, Fernandes, Mbeumo, Cunha, Sesko

Player to watch: Kobbie Mainoo

Kobbie Mainoo has been brilliant for Manchester United since Michael Carrick replaced Ruben Amorim in the Old Trafford hot seat, and he will be desperate to continue on this same trajectory with the World Cup looming large. Mainoo's first-ever Premier League appearance came against the Toffees, so the fixture likely has some sentimental value to the midfielder, too.
