Everton and Manchester United face at the English Premier League (EPL) clash at Goodison Park, Liverpool on Saturday 29th October 2011 12:00 PM BST. This is an interesting game of high quality as the whole football world looks on to see how the Manchester United reacts after the 6-1 home defeat to Manchester City and determines the way forward the destination of the trophy in August. It's time for Man Utd to rise to the challenge.
Manchester United, who sits in the second place in the table with 20 points, have just experienced a nightmare in their own backyard as Manchester City thumped them 6-1 in the league. The clash with City is the only one lost of their last eight Premier League matches. In these last matches, Manchester United have won over Norwich City 2 -0. In addition, Manchester United has scored more headed goals than any other team in the Premier League this term. In other words, MU have scored about 24% of their shots which is considered the best conversion rate in the top flight. It is understandable that Alex Ferguson seeks for the most holistic approach to the match and the strongest eleven.
Meanwhile, Everton have witnessed an inconsistent start to the 2011-12 campaign. Everton also pose a huge threat to Man Utd in the coming clash. Before the hard-fought 3-1 victory over Fulham at Craven Cottage last weekend, Everton have been defeated by Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City. Currently, Everton are on the 13rd place with 10 points.
