A last gasp goal gave Manchester United a win over Villarreal in Wednesday's Champions League game. United are fourth in the Premier League, ahead of fifth placed Everton on goal difference. A draw for United in this game will take them to the top of the Premier League. However, if Everton win this match, they will be the ones going into first place.  Manchester United lost their unbeaten record in the Premier League when being beaten by Aston Villa. They had scored nine goals in their first two league games of the season and this is the first of four big home league games for them. After this, they host Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal. Their record against Everton at Old Trafford is strong with a run of seven league games unbeaten, though the last two have been drawn.

Everton are fifth in the table and like their opponents have had four wins, a draw and a defeat. Their only loss in the Premier League was a 3-0 away defeat at Aston Villa. They have won those four league games but it's Southampton, Brighton, Burnley and Norwich that have been beaten. Aside from Brighton, the other three victories have come against three of the bottom five teams. Only one of their last five away league matches. Back United to get a home win here, with a side bet on both teams scoring.
