Manchester United prepares for Premier League clash against Everton
Manchester United prepares to face Everton at Hill Dickinson Stadium this Sunday in a Premier League matchup. Following a recent 5-2 victory over Ipswich Town, manager Michael Carrick looks to maintain momentum, though he faces several selection challenges.
Manchester United's squad is dealing with various fitness issues. Amad Diallo is expected to be sidelined for six weeks, and Matthijs de Ligt is currently being load managed. Mason Mount and Luke Shaw are both expected to undergo late fitness tests to determine their availability. Other notable absentees include Manuel Ugarte and Carlos Baleba.
In contrast, Everton enters the match after a transfer window that saw them lose Iliman Ndiaye to Manchester City and fail to secure Folarin Balogun. The club has also seen interest in Joshua Zirkzee, though a loan move to Everton did not materialize. Everton manager David Moyes may be able to recall Jack Grealish to the squad following a late loan signing.
Manchester United's academy has also seen activity, with JJ Gabriel and Harry Amass participating in first-team training sessions ahead of the fixture.
