SlipsTips examines the Bet Builder market ahead of Everton’s Premier League encounter with Manchester United on Sunday night.
Everton vs Manchester United (Sunday, 19:00)
Everton will be targeting three successive wins in the English Premier League when they go up against Manchester United at Goodison Park on Sunday night.
After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, the Toffees upcoming campaign appeared to look bleak, however they have thus far silenced the doubters by starting the season in solid fashion, taking 10 points from their opening eight matches.
As for Manchester United, their four-game winning run in the league was brought to a shuddering halt in a 6-3 loss at rivals Man City last Sunday, bringing Erik ten Hag’s players back down to earth with a bang.
Given that this feels like a tricky fixture to tackle from a 1×2 perspective, I’m going to steer clear of the outright betting and instead head to William Hill‘s Build Your Odds feature.
If we combine each team to receive over 19.5 booking points we will be presented with an eye-catching 21/20 (William Hill) play and that makes plenty of appeal.
While the Premier League season is still well in its infancy, these two teams have been flying the flag for card-based backers over the opening stretch of the campaign.
Hosts Everton have averaged 2.25 yellow cards per-game across the first eight rounds of the season, collecting at least two bookings in three of their four matches at their Merseyside base.
Manchester United, on the other hand, are somewhat surprisingly residing at the top of the disciplinary standings, with the Red Devils’ yellow per-game tally currently sitting at a chunky 3.29.
Although referee David Coote has averaged just 2.33 cards across his three Premier League games this season so far, he was one of the more card-happy whistlers in the top tier last term, averaging almost 50 Booking Points per match, and he should be kept busy here in what promises to be a tasty televised tussle under the Merseyside lights.
With this in mind, and considering that the aforementioned selection would have paid out in three of Everton’s four Premier League home games this season so far, siding with this wager this weekend stands out at a value 21/20 (William Hill).
