It’s a big game for…
Romelu Lukaku: Jose Mourinho admitted that this is not a “sweet moment” for the Belgian, and no goals in eight matches very much encapsulates that. Six goals in four games preceded the former Everton man’s current barren run, and there will be no better time to get his first at Old Trafford this season than against his former side.
Best stat…
98: Manchester United have scored 98 goals against Everton in the Premier League, more than against any other opponent.
Player to watch…
Andre Gomes: The Barcelona loanee made an impressive debut for the Toffees last weekend against Crystal Palace. The midfielder was fantastic in recovering the ball and was similarly impressive in starting off attacks, providing a flashback to the Portuguese’s performances at Valencia and why Barcelona paid £42m for his services in 2016.

Half Time: Manchester Utd 1-0 Everton
A half that rather sums up Manchester United this season, and Paul Pogba to a certain extent.
The Frenchman has given the hosts the lead after putting away the rebound from his saved penalty, but there hasn't been a great deal to shout about aside from that.
Everton have been similarly neither here nor there, and Marco Silva will certainly demand an extra 10% from his players in the second half.
46 min: Manchester Utd 1-0 Everton
Back underway at Old Trafford. Will Jose Mourinho's side add to their tally or is there an Everton comeback on the cards? Let's find out.
47 min: Manchester Utd 1-0 Everton
What a start that would have been to the second half!
Richarlison advances forward and gets his shot through the United defence. De Gea is equal to the task mind.
GOAL! Manchester Utd 2-0 Everton (Martial 49')
This is special from Martial. The ball falls to Paul Pogba 25 yards out after a clearance, but he resists the urge to shoot and instead opts to set up his countryman who exquisitely curls the ball into the far corner.
Pickford really had no chance.
51 min: Manchester Utd 2-0 Everton
The deficit should be halved. Ashley Young steps up at the wrong time, allowing Bernard to run through on to Richarlison's through ball.
The Brazilian rounds de Gea but then can only place his effort into the side netting.
They won't get many better chances than that.
54 min: Manchester Utd 2-0 Everton
And three minutes later the hosts should be out of sight.
Marcus Rashford collects the ball and runs free to go through on goal, but his touch takes him slightly wide and allows Pickford to save his low drive from the angle with his foot.
57 min: Manchester Utd 2-0 Everton
Juan Mata has been excellent today and he expertly picks out the run of Pogba. The Frenchman sets himself and fires towards the near post, but Pickford is on hand to get a strong hand to the effort and put it behind.
61 min: Manchester Utd 2-0 Everton
A change for the visitors, as Bernard, who had a big chance to make it 2-1, is withdrawn and Ademola Lookman is his replacement.
