Man United vs Everton fixture history Man United WinsEverton WinsDrawsTotal Matches 967148215 Source: 11v11.com Outstanding home record vs Everton Historically, United have a very strong record against most teams at home but this is particularly true of Everton. The BBC reports that, “Everton have won just one of their last 12 Premier League games against Man Utd, drawing five and losing six.” They last won in a 1-0 home win in April 2022. What’s more, they’ve won just one of their last 32 against them at Old Trafford picking up eight draws and 23 losses. Everton’s Monday blues The side from the Hill Dickinson Stadium hardly have the best record playing on a Monday night. They are winless in their last nine Premier League games on a Monday night, kicking off at 7pm or later. In fact, their last win came in a 2-1 win against Arsenal in December 2021. Since then they have drawn five and lost four of the Monday evening affairs. This record is even worse away, failing to win in their last 10 Monday night matches, drawing five and losing six. They last won away on a Monday in 2016 against Sunderland. United have won a total of 33 of their 54 Monday night fixtures in Premier League history. Nonetheless, they have lost their last two, a 0-4 hiding to Crystal Palace in May 2024 and a 0-2 defeat at home to Newcastle United last December. Bryan Mbeumo will hope to end drought Few players have been more effective in the Premier League this season than Bryan Mbeumo. The Cameroonian has taken to life at Old Trafford like a duck to water and has continued his fine form of last season for Brentford. He has been involved in more Premier League goals than any other Man Utd player this season, six goals and one assist. However, Everton are the only side the Cameroonian has faced more than twice in the competition without registering a single goal or assist. Mbeumo has gone eight matches without a goal contribution against the Toffees and he will hope that changes on Monday night.
