Manchester United aims to revive their Champions League hopes as they face Everton on Saturday. Erik ten Hag team has suffered two consecutive Premier League defeats leaving them 11 points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa. While fifth place might secure Champions League qualification under the revamped format, United is eyeing the top four position. Everton currently in 16th place had their 10 points deduction reduced to six last month.

Despite sitting five points ahead of the relegation zone, they have not won any of their last 10 top-flight matches. In terms of injuries, Everton Idrissa Gana Gueye is doubtful for the match while Amad from United praises teammate Lisandro Martinez as the toughest opponent in training. Additionally, Sergio Reguilon reflects on the emotional moment when United exited the Carabao Cup admitting he cried after the defeat to Newcastle.
