Current streaks

Recent form

Manchester United

Manchester United's recent form shows a mix of resilience and inconsistency, with the Red Devils unbeaten in their last five matches across all competitions. They have managed to keep two clean sheets during this period, demonstrating improved defensive stability. The standout result was undoubtedly their 5-2 victory over Leicester in the League Cup, showcasing their attacking prowess. United's goal-scoring ability is further highlighted by their impressive average of 2.17 goals per game over the last six matches. However, their league position of 12th suggests they are still struggling to find consistency in the Premier League. The fact that both teams have scored in 67% of these recent matches indicates that while United are finding the net regularly, they are also vulnerable defensively, contributing to their mixed results.

Everton

Everton's recent form reflects a team struggling to find consistency in the Premier League. The Toffees have managed just one win in their last six matches, drawing four and losing one. Their defensive record has been impressive, with four clean sheets in this period and only two goals conceded, averaging a mere 0.33 goals conceded per game. However, their attacking output has been a concern, scoring only three goals in six matches, at an average of 0.5 goals per game. All of Everton's recent matches have been low-scoring affairs, with 100% of their games featuring under 2.5 goals. Interestingly, both teams have scored in only 17% of these matches, highlighting Everton's defensive solidity but also their struggles in front of goal. Despite their 15th position in the league table, Everton's recent form suggests they are difficult to beat but equally find it challenging to secure victories.

Recent home/away form

Manchester United

Manchester United's recent home form has been impressive, with the Red Devils currently enjoying a four-match unbeaten run at Old Trafford. They have won three of their last four home games, including a high-scoring 5-2 victory over Leicester in the League Cup, which stands out as their most prolific performance. The team have been particularly potent in attack, scoring 13 goals in their last six home matches at an average of 2.17 per game. Defensively, they've also shown improvement, keeping clean sheets in their two most recent home fixtures. Despite their strong home form, United's overall league position (12th) suggests they may be struggling on their travels. The contrast between their home performances and league standing provides an interesting narrative for the club's current season.

Everton

Everton's recent away form has been rather inconsistent, with the Toffees struggling to find consistent success on the road. In their last six away matches, they have managed only one win, against Ipswich Town, whilst suffering three defeats and securing two draws. Notably, Everton have failed to score in three of these six matches, including a heavy 4-0 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur. Their defensive record has been a concern, conceding nine goals in these six games, with a particularly high-scoring encounter against Aston Villa ending in a 3-2 loss. On a positive note, Everton have shown some resilience in their most recent away fixtures, earning a goalless draw against West Ham and keeping two clean sheets in their last four away matches. However, their overall goal-scoring record remains poor, averaging less than a goal per game on their travels during this period.
