Manchester United will be aiming to make it three Premier League wins in a row when they resume their campaign with a trip to Everton on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils have beaten Fulham and Luton Town in their last two league games to move into sixth position in the table, five points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur.
Everton are unbeaten in their last three in England's top flight, but they have dropped to 19th position due to their 10-point deduction for breaking the Premier League's rules when it comes to profit and sustainability.
The Toffees should therefore be fired-up on their return to action, and the hosts will be determined to halt a three-game losing run to Man United in all competitions.
Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides.

Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 159
Everton wins: 47
Draws: 36
Man Utd wins: 76
Man United lead the overall head-to-head record between the two teams, posting 76 wins to Everton's 47, while there have also been 36 draws in this particular fixture.
As mentioned, the Red Devils are on a three-game winning run against Everton, triumphing in both Premier League matches last season, in addition to recording a 3-1 victory in the third round of the FA Cup back in January.
Everton's last win over Man United was a 1-0 success at Goodison Park in the Premier League in April 2022, but that is their only victory against the 20-time English champions in the last 10 meetings.
Unsurprisingly, Everton's last four victories over the Red Devils have come on home soil, including a standout 4-0 success in the Premier League towards the end of the 2018-19 campaign.
Everton's last Old Trafford win was a 1-0 success in the Premier League in December 2013, while there have been four draws in the last eight league meetings between the two sides.
Man United's double over Everton during the 2022-23 Premier League season was actually the first time that they had managed successive victories against the Toffees since 2018.
The Red Devils enjoyed their best winning run against Everton in the Premier League between December 1999 and February 2004, when they recorded nine victories in a row.
Meanwhile, Man United went unbeaten against the Toffees in the Premier League between September 1995 and April 2005, showing their dominance over the Merseyside club at this level.
Former Everton striker Graeme Sharp is the all-time leading goalscorer in this fixture with 10, while Anthony Martial actually has eight alongside ex-Man United players Denis Law and Ryan Giggs, and the Frenchman could start on Sunday if Rasmus Hojlund does not recover from a muscular strain.
