Satisfactory Outcome

For all their improvement over the last few months, Manchester United have still only won 5 of their 16 away league matches in 2014-15. On Sunday they face a side unbeaten at home in 2015 in all competitions (W5 D5). We therefore need to oppose the away triumph at nothing longer than 6/5.

The most likely outcome looks like the draw at a best price of 5/2 with Betfred. Over the whole campaign Everton have drawn 44% of their games at Goodison while the Red Devils have also shared the spoils in 44% of their away outings.

As always when backing a draw it also pays to ask if that result would suit both sides. If yes, it’s more likely to happen. I think that applies here with United aware that a point at a tricky venue keeps their top four aspirations on track while it would also keep the Merseysiders’ unbeaten run going.
