SlipsTips shares a Bet Builder ahead of Everton's clash with Manchester United in the Premier League tonight.
Everton vs Manchester United, Monday (20:00)
Both looking to get back to winning ways in the Premier League, Everton and Manchester United will face off at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Monday night.
Everton will be eager to bounce back after slumping to a 2-1 home defeat to Bournemouth in their last top-flight outing.
Meanwhile, Manchester United had to rely on a last-gasp equaliser to snatch a point in a 1-1 draw at West Ham last time out.
Bryan Mbeumo 2+ Shots
I’m kicking off the Bet Builder by backing Bryan Mbeumo to attempt two or more shots. Mbeumo has proven to be a shrewd signing for Manchester United, and his shot output has been particularly impressive. The Cameroonian forward is averaging 2.64 shots per game in the Premier League this season, attempting two or more shots in 17 of his 21 appearances so far, including three efforts against Everton in this season’s reverse fixture.
With the Toffees conceding just under 13.5 shots per game in the Premier League this term, Mbeumo looks well placed to deliver another 2+ shots on Monday night.
Over 0 Everton Cards
For the second leg, I’m happy to back Everton to pick up at least one card. David Moyes’ side is averaging 1.88 yellow cards per 90 in the Premier League this season, a figure that rises to 2.00 when playing at home. Ill-discipline has also cost the Toffees in recent home matches – they had two players sent off against Wolves last month and were reduced to 10 men when hosting Bournemouth in their most recent top-flight outing.
Manchester United, meanwhile, have proven to be one of the most effective sides in the division at drawing cards from their opponents, with the Red Devils reeling in an average of 2.24 bookings per game from their Premier League foes this season.
Luke Shaw To Commit 1+ Foul
I’ll round off the Bet Builder by backing Luke Shaw to commit a minimum one foul. The Manchester United defender has been consistent when it comes to catching match officials’ attention throughout his career, and this season is no exception. Shaw is averaging 1.35 fouls per game in the Premier League and has overstepped the mark at least once in each of his last 16 outings.
Team news permitting, the Red Devils defender could find himself in a direct duel with Everton’s Iliman Ndiaye, who has drawn an average of 1.38 fouls per game in the top-flight this term.
Combined, the above-mentioned selections will bring about a 4/5 shot on bet365, which looks like solid value.
Recommended Bet
- Bryan Mbeumo 2+ Shots

- Luke Shaw To Commit 1+ Foul
- Bet Builder – 4/5 (bet365)
