Expect a Fairly Physical Game

#1

Although Solskjaer has plenty of options with regards to his formation, the Norwegian has made a habit of using a back three against the better teams on away soil. With that in mind, Mason Greenwood and Odion Ighalo may be used as a front two at Goodison Park as Anthony Martial struggles to shake off a thigh problem.

#2

Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba remain long-term absentees, while Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said he wants Axel Tuanzebe and Timothy Fosu-Mensah to get minutes under their belt before returning to first-team action.

#3

Everton have a few players on the injury list coming into this weekend’s game. He will be joined on the sidelines by Theo Walcott, who sits out with a knee injury. Lucas Digne missed the Arsenal defeat with a muscle strain, and is a doubt to start this game.

#4

Andre Gomes made his eagerly-awaited return from a dislocated ankle off the bench and Ancelotti will be strongly tempted to start him here.

#5

Despite United’s historical advantage, Everton have fared better in recent games, avoiding defeat in both of the matches which were played in 2019.
