A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser

Analysis:

Manchester United knows this few matches will be crucial as they head out against an in form Everton side in this early kickoff. The next five games starting with Everton will be crucial if they are to win the Premiership title.

After the clash with Everton, they have a two legged affair with Schalke in the Champions League followed by meetings with Arsenal and Chelsea to come. But they have a good record against Everton so they should kick start their next match with a win at least.

For the record, the Red Devils have won 14 and lost none of their last 17 Premier League games against the Toffees at Old Trafford. They have also won their last 12 top-flight fixtures on home soil, with three clean sheets secured in their last four league outings.

Everton knows the tough task ahead of them as they have won only four of their 37 meetings to date, with the Red Devils proving hard to beat in recent years.

The Toffees did managed a point when the two sides met earlier in the season and have scored three goals in the 90th minute or later in their last two games against Ferguson's men. And as it is now, the visitors are unbeaten in seven, with 17 points collected during that run. It must be stated here that even though they have won their last two fixtures, but have not won three Premier League away games in a row since December 2008.

As for the team news ahead of this match, Darren Flether is out of this match as he is still recovering from illness. Owen Hargreaves is out until the end of the season with a shoulder injury. Paul Scholes misses out through suspension, while Dimitar Berbatov, who sat out Tuesday's goalless draw at Newcastle with a virus, has a slight groin strain and might not be risked.

As for Everton they will liekly bring on Seamus Coleman and Jack Rodwell back into the first-team after they started against Blackburn. John Heitinga is a doubt with a hamstring injury, while Louis Saha and Marouane Fellaini (both ankle) definitely miss out. Tim Cahill and Mikel Arteta are definitely out of this clash as this match comes too soon for them.

Take Manchester United to win and clear the handicap here.

Cheers and good luck,
