Manchester United v Everton (Old Trafford, 1600 BST, Sky Sports Main Event)
Manchester United could find themselves in the bottom half of the Premier League standings by the time this game comes around, and they face a tricky task against an in-form Everton side.
The Toffees have won their last three Premier League games, although their victory over Leicester was their first away win of the season.
Old Trafford has lost its fear factor in recent seasons and that is evident by the fact that United have only won two of their four Premier League games in front of their own supporters in 2018/19.
Jose Mourinho's men found themselves 2-0 down against Newcastle (before a dramatic second-half comeback) and were also ran close by Leicester on opening day, so it is fair to say that Everton will have opportunities to find the net here.
Despite the individual talent they possess, the hosts have been conceding plenty of shots in the games they are playing.
The last three games in all competitions has seen a total of 48 shots for the opposition, with 19 of those on target.
Given Everton's quality in attack, and the support behind in attacking midfield, stats betting is an avenue worth exploring giving the good odds you can get on the away side.
Betting guide
Score prediction: Manchester United 1-1 Everton (Sky Bet odds: 6/1)
Manchester United's woes are evident given their current position in the Premier League standings. Everton are in decent form themselves and can be confident of picking up a point as they look to continue their push up the table.
Best bet: Paul Pogba and Gylfi Sigurdsson 1+ shots on target each at 13/8
I have already outlined the fact that Manchester United tend to concede plenty of shots against them and have been outshot by opponents in recent weeks. Sigurdsson has had the most shots on goal by a considerable distance over his Everton teammates. His 23 is seven clear of Cenk Tosun and Richarlison and his involvement in the attack makes him great value to have another attempt here.
Pogba, in similar fashion to Sigurdsson, leads the way for shots on goal for Manchester United by a big distance. His 27 is eight clear of Romelu Lukaku and he'll fancy his chances of adding to that tally against an Everton side who have conceded 12 goals in their nine games so far this season.
Goalscorer: Gylfi Sigurdsson anytime at 4/1
I've already discussed his impact in front of goal and there is real value in backing Everton's current top scorer to strike here at odds of 4/1. The Icelandic international has five goals on his tally already alongside an assist. The hosts have kept just one clean sheet in their seven games at Old Trafford this season and Everton are a side capable of continuing that run.
RequestABet: Pogba 1+ shots on target and Sigurdsson 1+ shots on target, 9+ match corners and 30+ match booking points at 5/1
