Everton host Manchester United in the Premier League as David Moyes faces under-fire Ruben Amorim at Goodison Park.
The Toffees have been revived under Moyes, who will now look to continue their six-game unbeaten run against his former team. Amorim has admitted Moyes is “doing a better job” than he is currently and United are in a downward spiral. They have lost their last two league fixtures and mounting injuries mean their squad has been decimated since the close of the transfer window.
Pressure is growing on manager Amorim to turn things around but to do so the club need positive results on the pitch. United have a good record at Goodison and will need to draw on that history to triumph today.

Everton 2-0 Man Utd
Unsurprisingly, Everton are looking very comfortable in possession as the half comes to an end.
Both sides look content to go in for half-time at the moment.

When United do have the ball, it’s all a little bit static ahead of whoever is in possession.
They do win a free-kick near the touchline, but Fernandes’ ball in is cleared before Ugarte fires a speculative effort well wide from outside the area.

Everton 2-0 Man Utd
Another abject United performance, another bit of disastrous defending for the second goal. It was too easy for Beto to run in behind the slow defence. No one tracked Jack Harrison’s run. Doucoure outjumped a static Harry Maguire to score. And now the talk at Goodison is of how Everton could score three goals in a first half for the third time in four games.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, it’s Everton who are still creating all the opportunities.
Lindstrom’s brilliant flick releases Garner, who fizzes in a ball to Beto, but the striker can’t get a shot away.

No attempts on target from United yet, with Everton having had four. Another toothless display from United so far.
Mykolenko is okay to carry on.

There’s a raucous atmosphere at Goodison Park now, though there’s a break in play as Mykolenko is receiving treatment.

GOAL! Everton 2-0 Man Utd
GOAL! The hosts have doubled their lead!
It’s too easy for Everton, with a pass from their own half playing in Beto. He looks up and squares a pass to Harrison, who feints to beat Maguire and then hits a shot at Onana.
The ‘keeper saves it but he can only palm it high into the air, and Beto is arriving and jumps high to head it in!

Everton 1-0 Man Utd
United have improved in possession over the last couple of minutes, but they keep getting robbed high up due to Everton’s press…

Everton 1-0 Man Utd
Finally a good combination on the left from United, with Dorgu and Fernandes exchanging passes before the latter’s cross is put behind for a corner.
From the set-piece, a poor delivery is headed away.

Everton have the latest chance too, as they win a free-kick midway into the United half, but Dorgu manages to clear.
It’s the hosts who are continuing to have the more dangerous possession.
