Man Utd vs Everton: Predictions & Odds
Everton make the short trip to Old Trafford in the FA Cup on Friday night for what could be Frank Lampard's last game in charge of the Toffees. Man Utd head into this cup tie as the overwhelming favourite to win the game in front of their own fans against a very poor Everton side that is low on confidence and goals.

Man Utd to Win-to-Nil
It's hard to see this game going any other way than a Man Utd victory and we're backing the hosts to keep a clean sheet on their way into the hat for the next round. The Red Devils have won three of the last six competitive and non-competitive meetings between these two clubs, including a 2-1 win at Goodison Park in October. Man Utd have won each of their last six competitive matches, while Everton have lost five of their last six fixtures.
Marcus Rashford to Score
Rashford is enjoying a really impressive season for United and his form has continued following the World Cup in Qatar. The England star has scored 12-goals in all competitions this season and we're backing him to score against Everton at Old Trafford on Friday night, which shouldn't be hard against an Everton side in freefall that appears to have no style or structure.

Taking a look at the possible lineups for this FA Cup fixture
Man Utd
Man Utd head into Friday's big game on the back of a comfortable win over Bournemouth. Casemiro fired the home side in front after 23-minutes and early in the second-half, Shaw scored a rare goal to make it 2-0. Rashford put the icing on the cake when he made it 3-0 with 4-minutes left on the clock. There are doubts over Martial, Sancho, Antony and van de Beek ahead of the Everton game, but Martial should be fit to start the game.
Predicted Lineup – de Gea, Lindelöf, Maguire, Shaw, Wan-Bissaka, Eriksen, Casemiro, Fernandes, van de Beek, Martial & Rashford
Everton
Everton put in their worst performance for a long time at home to Brighton in midweek, going down 4-1 but it could have been a lot worse. Mitoma put the visitors in front in the 14th-minute but it was in the second-half that the Seagulls began to fly. Young forward Ferguson made it 2-0 and 3-minutes later it was 3-0. Three minutes after that goal, Brighton were at it again as Gross dink the ball over a hapless Pickford. Everton earned a stoppage-time penalty which Gray converted to ironic cheers from the Evertonians. Garner, Gordon, Keane, Patterson and Townsend all look like they will miss the trip to Old Trafford through injury or illness.
Predicted lineup – Pickford, Tarkowski, Coady, Godfrey, Mykolenko, Coleman, Gueye, Onana, Iwobi, Gray & Calvert-Lewin

Player to Watch: Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford starred for England at the World Cup despite making most of his appearances from the bench. The England international returned from the World Cup in fine form and looks to have real confidence in front of goal again and that could lead to him becoming a 20-goal-per-season forward once again.
Rashford has scored in all competitions for Man Utd this season, totalling 12-goals overall, so we won't be surprised to see his name on the scoresheet against the Toffees in the FA Cup on Friday. The 25-year-old had been linked with a move away from Man Utd due to his poor form but now that the smile has returned to his face he seems like the old Rashford which can't be a good thing for any team he comes up against, especially an Everton side void of all confidence and ability.
