Bruno Fernandes can match Ruud van Nistelrooy record for Manchester United vs Everton

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Bruno Fernandes can follow in the footsteps of a Manchester United hero this afternoon at Goodison Park. United make the short journey to Merseyside for today’s lunchtime kick-off as they take on relegation-threatened Everton.

Having made a disappointing return from the international break against Leicester last weekend, United will need to improve to give their top four hopes a much-needed boost.

Key to their ambitions this afternoon could be Fernandes. The Portugal international is likely to revert to his usual number 10 role following last week’s failed experiment as he and Paul Pogba played as a front two.

He's without a goal for his club since scoring in the 4-2 win at Leeds back in February. The omens are good for the 27-year-old, who has enjoyed his previous meetings with Everton.
