Back this 5/2 Everton vs Manchester United single

Everton manager David Moyes welcomes his former club Manchester United to Goodison Park in Saturday's early kick-off.

Can the Scotsman compound the Red Devils' woes with victory?

Our tipster Brad Walker (@brad_TWalker) has taken a closer look at the match-up and put up a 5/2 fancy.

The feel-good factor continues at Everton following their 2-1 win at Crystal Palace last weekend. David Moyes' men have now lost only one of their last six in all competitions - a 2-0 home defeat to Bournemouth in the FA Cup.

In fact, a loss to Aston Villa in Moyes' first game in charge is their only league defeat since he returned to the club back in January.

Moyes is also battling a lengthy injury list, which features key players such as Dwight McNeil, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Iliman Ndiaye, yet his Toffees continue their ascent up the Premier League table.

There's plenty to ponder for visiting Manchester United therefore, who have now suffered consecutive league defeats following their 1-0 loss at Tottenham last weekend.

Failing to score against a Spurs defence which had conceded 12 times in their last four homes games speaks to United's lack of firepower in forward areas. In fact, they've now scored just once in their last three games in the league ahead of their trip to their buoyant Merseyside hosts.

Everton to continue impressive scoring run?

Everton can relate to the away side's goalscoring troubles given the struggles they endured in front of goal prior to the sacking of former boss Sean Dyche.

However, Moyes' arrival looks to have breathed fresh life into their attack, which has mustered at least two goals in their six league games under the Scotsman.

This has also been the case in their last three games at Goodison Park, an ominous sign for a United defence which has averaged 1.4 goals conceded this term.

Given the visitors' dismal run has shown no signs of ending, backing the Everton win with over 1.5 goals at 5/2 looks a no-brainer.

That price is shortening though, so it's best to get on side sooner rather than later in order to bag the best odds available.
