Everton will travel to Old Trafford to face Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United on Sunday in the Premier League.

The Toffees are 15th in the table and are heading into this game on the back of a dull draw against ten-men Brentford at Goodison Park.

Everton are winless in their last four games and Sean Dyche is under immense pressure. Not only have the results been poor, but the playing style is also pathetic.

There is hardly any creativity in the side, and the system is failing to get the best out of attacking players at the club.

Everton striker Armando Broja, who joined on loan from Chelsea, could feature for the first time this season, but it would be really unfair to expect that he would deliver instantly, having been out for so long with a foot injury.

Here’s the Everton predicted starting XI.

Goalkeeper

Jordan Pickford has no competition in the side, and therefore, the England goalkeeper should continue.

Defence

Dyche confirmed that Seamus Coleman is back on the grass, but he is not ready yet to start for the Toffees.

Nathan Patterson remains an option at right-back, but Dyche doesn’t fancy him enough.

Ashley Young, Vitaly Mykolenko, Jarrad Branthwaite and James Tarkowski should continue.

Midfield

The likes of James Garner and Tim Iroegbunam are still out injured. Garner is not even back in training, but Iroegbunam should return in the coming weeks.

The options are limited for Dyche. Abdoulaye Doucoure was poor against Brentford, and he could make way for Orel Mangala.

The 26-year-old has made five starts in the Premier League, and he is likely to be given another chance to impress his manager.

Attack

There are suggestions that Iliman NDiaye should start in the number ten role, but Dyche doesn’t buy that idea.

Dwight McNeil, Jesper Lindstrom and Ndiaye should continue.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored only two goals this season, and he is clearly lacking self-belief. The Blues must drop him and start with Beto up front.

Predicted Everton XI v Man Utd: Pickford; Young, Mykolenko, Branthwaite, Tarkowski; Gueye, Mangala; Lindstrom, Ndiaye, McNeil, Beto.
