David Moyes will look to inflict more misery on his former side when Everton host Manchester United in Premier League motion this weekend.

The Toffees have enjoyed a marvellous turnaround for the reason that Scot returned to Goodison Park for a second stint.

Sat 16^th, one point off the relegation zone, Everton have morphed into the league’s in-form side, picking up 13 points with 4 wins in six matches.

Everton have eased above United within the table with their relegation fears surely over. Goodison will still be bouncing after last week’s Merseyside derby thriller with United reeling from defeat at Tottenham on Sunday and a fresh batch of injury problems.

Amad Diallo’s season is over, joining Lisandro Martinez on the injured list with Mason Mount, Jonny Evans and Luke Shaw also still sidelined.

United are also set to be without Kobbie Mainoo until April with the midfielder ruled out for six weeks with a muscular injury.

Manuel Ugarte and Toby Collyer also missed Sunday’s trip to north London but their issues were considered more short-term.

Ruben Amorim will provide an additional injury update on the duo and the remainder of the squad at his pre-match press conference later this week.

Christian Eriksen and Leny Yoro also missed the 1-0 defeat through illness with hope the pair will recuperate in time for Saturday’s game.

United named seven academy players on the bench against Spurs with 18-year-old Ayden Heaven, signed from Arsenal in January, also making up the numbers. Victor Lindelof was the only real senior option that day.

While the striker only turned 17 in November, United’s senior attacking options remain woefully off form and there might be more possibilities for Obi in the approaching weeks.

‘In the event you see Chido playing, sometimes every ball lost within the box, he’s very clever, so I used to be attempting to put yet one more player… because I felt the team was good through the game and I didn’t feel the necessity to change,’ Amorim said on Sunday.

‘Chido was that player when, from a protracted ball, he could make the difference.’

Alejandro Garnacho has not found the back of the online since November but will probably be back on the scene of his Puskas Award-winning overhead kick, hopeful that may provide some inspiration.
