Premier League returns this weekend after the international break.  Manchester United will be facing Everton at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Red Devils still have eight games to move up to the fourth spot. Their win in the derby has certainly given them a boost to achieve that. Van Gaal’s side will be looking to repeat their last meet’s win of October against the Toffees.

The players seem determined to grab three points against the not-so-in-form side. Everton has lacked behind awfully this season and are definitely not the favourites to win this fixture.

A win on Sunday can be extremely boosting for the team’s current aim in the Premier League, and of course, van Gaal’s image. No?

Team News:

Manchester United:

Bastian Schweinsteiger will miss the game on Sunday after suffering from a knee injury in his game for his national side.

Wayne Rooney and Luke Shaw still remain unavailable but are set to return very soon.

Ashley Young and Ander Herrera could be included in the squad on Sunday.

Everton:

Steven Pienaar and Tony Hibbert are still unavailable due to injury.

Kevin Mirallas is back from suspension.

FACTS:

United have conceded only seven goals in their last 14 Premier League games at Old Trafford.

Romelu Lukaku is one of the only four players to have scored a hattrick against Manchester United.

Everton have lost just one game in their last 14 Premier League away matches.

KEY PLAYERS:

David De Gea:

The Spanish goalkeeper has undoubtedly been the best player for the club this season. His form has been consistent and will looking repeat his now-daily-routine saves against Everton.

Romelu Lukaku:

The Everton striker has a great record of scoring against United at just the age of 22. He is lethal and will be a big burden to handle for United’s defence. He has scored six goals in his last seven games for Everton.
