Manchester United vs Everton: 3 Key Player Battles
With the international break now behind us, the Premier League finally resumes after a 2-week break, with Manchester United taking on Everton at Old Trafford on Sunday. The Red Devils are currently sixth on the League table and only a point behind Manchester City on 4th. With the business end of the season fully in, every match is crucial now. United are serious contenders for the final Champions League spot, and if they can bag the spot, it will be a great way for van Gaal to sign off. The stakes are high, and here are the 3 battles which could decide the game:
1. Romelu Lukaku v Chris Smalling
The 22-year-old Belgian beast has already scored 26 goals this season in all competitions and has also set up 10 more. He has been phenomenal for the Toffees, and will surely be their Player Of The Season. Chris Smalling will have his hands full on Sunday night, and although he has been in good form this season, the Belgian will challenge the Englishman with his dribbling and physique.
