Everton (3rd, 3 pts) are firmly in the top six and host a Manchester United side (17th, 0 pts) languishing in the bottom half. On paper, this looks comfortable.
Everton's home record this season is formidable. W1 D0 L0 from 1, scoring 2.0 goals per game at home. Manchester United, by contrast, have struggled on the road (W0 D0 L1 from 1 away).

Both teams scoring is the pattern. It happens in 53% of Everton's home games and 74% of Manchester United's away matches.
