Everton Vs Manchester United At 1:30pm – European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) 

Everton is set to face Manchester United at Goodison Park today, Saturday, February 22, 2025, with kickoff at 1:30 PM WAT. This Premier League match features two teams striving to improve their standings.

Everton, under the guidance of manager David Moyes, has shown significant improvement recently. They have won four of their last five league matches, including a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace.

This resurgence has lifted them above Manchester United in the league table. However, the team faces challenges with key players like Iliman Ndiaye, Dwight McNeil, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin sidelined due to injuries.

Manchester United, led by manager Ruben Amorim, is experiencing a tough season, currently positioned 15th in the league.

They have suffered three losses in their last four Premier League games, including a recent 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. Injuries have also plagued United, with notable absences such as Amad Diallo, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, and Luke Shaw.

Historically, Manchester United has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning the last five Premier League meetings against Everton without conceding a goal. Their most recent encounter saw United secure a 4-0 victory in December 2024.

Given Everton’s recent form and home advantage, they are optimistic about securing a positive result. Manchester United, aiming to reverse their fortunes, will need to address their defensive vulnerabilities and capitalize on scoring opportunities.

A closely contested match is anticipated, with a potential for a narrow victory for either side or a draw.
