Everton take on Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday 6 September 2026, with kick-off at 14:00 BST. Both sides go into the match having started the season unevenly, and the fixture is a chance for either to make an early statement.
The only meeting between the two clubs in our records is a Women's Super League fixture, with Manchester United beating Everton 2-1 on 21 March 2026. It tells us nothing about how the men's teams match up, and there is no recent men's head-to-head on file to draw from.
Everton have made a solid start to their Premier League campaign. They beat Crystal Palace 2-0 at home on 22 August, then drew 1-1 away at Bournemouth on 29 August. In between, they thrashed Preston North End 4-0 away in the EFL Cup on 26 August.
Manchester United's league form has been more mixed. They lost 2-0 away at Hull City on 22 August, before responding with a 5-2 win at home to Ipswich Town on 30 August. Their pre-season friendlies were high-scoring in both directions, including a 6-5 win over Leeds United and a 4-2 defeat to AC Milan.
Everton have two notable absences. Jack Grealish remains out with a long-term injury, and Jake O'Brien is suspended. Seamus Coleman is fit to return, and Nathan Patterson looks the likely option to fill in at right-back.
Manchester United go into the game under interim manager Michael Carrick, with reports suggesting he has the same group of players available that he did in their last league outing.
