Following back to back defeats, Everton will be looking to bounce back and return to winning ways when they take on Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday, and you can watch this game and other Premier League games live online.
Everton haven’t won a single game since the international break in October, and they have gone off the boil. The Toffees lost to Southampton and Newcastle in their previous two games, with the absence of key players such as James Rodriguez, Richarlison and Lucas Digne hurting them badly.
Manchester United, on the other hand, have picked up only seven points from their opening six games, and they are struggling for form and consistency.
The Red Devils are heading into this match on the back of a disappointing 2-1 defeat against Istanbul Basaksehir in the Champions League, and as a result, the focus has once again shifted to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s job security.
The pressure is mounting on the United boss, with various media publications even reporting that Solskjaer may fail to keep his job if United suffer defeat against Everton today, as it will push the Red Devils to 17th in the league table.
