"Starting with the hosts, while Manchester United might have entered November's International break with consecutive 2-2 stalemates against Tottenham and Nottingham Forest, Ruben Amorim's camp were enjoying an eye-catching run prior to the latest fortnight interval. Marking their return this weekend sat just one-point adrift of finding a routine back into the Champions League spots, the former Sporting Lisbon boss has not seen his squad suffer a single defeat from any of their previous five top-flight appearances (three wins, two draws)."
"Signing off October with an action-packed 4-2 victory at home against Brighton, United had found a real clinical edge in the final third. Despite mustering just a single Premier League clean sheet so far this season, Amorim's European dreamers have notched 12 goals on their five-match unbeaten run."
"Finding the net against Spurs prior to November's fortnight break and registering four goals in as many Premier League appearances, ex-Brentford striker Bryan Mbeumo will play a leading role in the final third. Fellow summer recruit and Belgium shot-stopper Senne Lammens will start between the sticks."
Manchester United return from the November international break to host Everton at Old Trafford on Monday night. United ended the break after consecutive 2-2 draws with Tottenham and Nottingham Forest but arrived having gone five league matches unbeaten (three wins, two draws), scoring 12 goals across that run and finishing October with a 4-2 win over Brighton. Lisandro Martinez could make a first appearance of the season after a long-term knee injury and the squad report no fresh injury concerns. Bryan Mbeumo is expected to lead in the final third, while Everton seek to build on a recent 2-0 win over Fulham amid relegation worries for David Moyes' side.
