Manchester United Vs. Everton: Watch Live, Online Stream; Prediction, Probable Lineups, Preview
When and Where: The Premier League match kicks-off from Old Trafford at 7.30 a.m. ET. Live coverage will be available on the Fox Soccer Channel. An online stream will be available later in the day via a subscription to FoxSoccer2Go.
Preview: With the much-anticipated Manchester derby to come in just over a week's time, Manchester United knows that it cannot afford any slip-ups against Everton on Sunday.
Despite a five-point gap at the top of the Premier League, United will want to have enough points in the bag so that even a defeat to City would leave them in first place.
Although Sir Alex Ferguson's men suffered a surprise defeat to Wigan recently, their form of late has been impressive, winning nine of the last 10 in the Premier League. And, on paper at least, United's chances look good of getting another win against Everton.
It has been almost 20 years since the Toffees last won at Old Trafford. And, while Everton has once again displayed some excellent late-season form, David Moyes' side will have to recover from the disappointment of losing to rivals Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley last weekend.
Team News: Manchester United have no new injury concerns, though it has been confirmed that midfielders Anderson and Paul Pogba will miss the remainder of the season with injury.
For Everton, Leighton Baines is ruled out with a hamstring injury picked up against Liverpool. Steven Pienaar should return to the starting lineup, though, having been forced to sit out the FA Cup semi-final due to being cup-tied. Jack Rodwell is out for the season with a hamstring injury.
Probable lineups
Manchester United: De Gea; Rafael, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra; Valencia, Carrick, Scholes, Young; Rooney, Welbeck.
Everton: Howard; Hibbert, Heitinga, Distin, Neville; Coleman, Gibson, Fellaini, Pienaar; Cahill; Jelavic.
Prediction: United had their blip at Wigan and it is difficult to see them slipping-up again, especially at Old Trafford. Following their defeat at Wembley there is a danger that the season could well now peter out for Everton.
Manchester United 2-0 Everton
