Looking to skyrocket their way back into the Champions League spots on Monday night, Manchester United will travel to Merseyside when they meet Everton.
While there might have been plenty of raised eyebrows last month following Michael Carrick’s shock return to the Old Trafford dugout, the Red Devils are clearly relishing life under the former Middlesbrough boss and they will be hoping to extend on their domestic purple patch here.
Although Everton might still find themselves scrapping it out in the top-half of the Premier League standings, the Toffees are searching for some crucial stability and they look set for what should be another stern challenge on Monday night.
With all eyes falling on the blue half of Merseyside, we have taken a look at some of the most attractive Everton vs Manchester United Bet Builder Tips.
Carrick’s remarkable return to Manchester
Although many might been shocked last month as Carrick made a return to the Old Trafford dugout, Manchester United have embarked on a stunning rise under their former midfielder.
Snatching a last-gasp equaliser away at West Ham last time out, Monday’s guests have recorded 13 points from their first five Premier League appearances since Carrick’s interim appointment.
Skyrocketing their way up the Premier League standings, the mood around the red half of Manchester is certainly at the highest it has been in recent memory and United will be looking to lay down another domestic marker here.
Opening Monday’s trip to Merseyside with just their goal difference keeping them outside the Champions League spots, United could be smelling a potential opportunity away from Old Trafford.
Landing a famous 3-2 victory away at bitter historic rivals and Premier League leaders Arsenal on January 25th, Carrick’s high-flying squad have also suffered just a single defeat on Merseyside since back in April 2019.

Sesko starting to find his feet
Although Benjamin Sesko might have initially struggled to find his feet after completing a blockbuster £65million move from RB Leipzig over the summer, the 22-year-old is enjoying his brightest run at Old Trafford.
Once again coming off the bench and bagging that sensational last-gasp equaliser away at West Ham last time out, Carrick has been filled with praise for the Slovenian international and Sesko could be handed a full recall here.
Getting February underway with another remarkable last-gasp strike during United’s 3-2 victory at home against Fulham, United’s new number nine has now notched five goals in as many appearances across all competitions.
Bagging a Premier League brace away at relegation scrappers Burnley on January 7th, Sesko should be looking to test an Everton defence who have shown some extended issues.
In fact, Monday’s hosts have recorded just a sole clean sheet from any of their eight outings since opening the New Year.

Everton’s extended struggles on home soil
While some in David Moyes’ camp might still be dreaming of the chance to mount a genuine European charge over the coming months, Everton are searching for some crucial stability.
Last seen suffering a real collapse on home soil as they eventually slumped to a 2-1 defeat against Bournemouth, the one-time Manchester United boss has seen his squad register just a pair of wins from any of their first eight matchups in 2026.
Watching their FA Cup adventure come to an abrupt end on January 10th as they suffered penalty shootout heartbreak at the hands of Sunderland, Monday’s hosts have also gained an unwanted reputation for their struggles on home soil.
Getting the New Year underway with an action-packed 4-2 loss against Brentford, Moyes’ side have remarkably failed to win any of their last six consecutive showdowns at the Hill Dickinson Stadium (four defeats, two draws).
Likewise, the Toffees have registered just a single Premier League win in front of their own supporters since returning from November’s international break.
