Manchester United vs Everton LIVE! Premier League result, match stream and latest updates today

Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford fired in penalties to give Manchester United a 2-0 win over Everton on Saturday, their first Premier League victory in three games and one that will no doubt fan the embers of their top-four hopes.

Erik ten Hag's team remain sixth but with 47 points they crept closer to fourth-placed Aston Villa on 55 with a game in hand. Fifth-placed Tottenham, who host Villa on Sunday, have 50 points and two games in hand. Sean Dyche's Everton are 16th on 25 points, five points above the drop zone.

Both penalties came courtesy of clumsy tackles in the box on Alejandro Garnacho and both were against the run of play, with Everton the dominant team for long stretches against a United midfield that repeatedly gave away the ball.

Fernandes fired in the first from the spot in the 12th minute, and United's captain then handed the ball to Rashford to take the second in the 36th minute. Rashford stutter-stepped before sending keeper Jordan Pickford the wrong way.

Ten Hag pleased 'huge' Garnacho gives Man Utd fans something to shout about

15:34 , Jonathan Gorrie

Erik ten Hag hailed Alejandro Garnacho after the winger’s starring role in Manchester United’s win over Everton.

Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford both scored first-half penalties won by the 19-year-old’s driving runs as Erik ten Hag’s recorded a much-needed and relatively comfortable victory in the end.

Everton had started the game in much better fashion but Garnacho’s devastating speed and frantic foot work saw him brought down by James Tarkowski just after the ten-minute mark.

Captain Fernandes duly stepped up and squeezed his spot-kick past Toffees ‘keeper Jordan Pickford before Garnacho was again at the heart of things for Rashford’s goal.

Ten Hag wrote in his programme notes: “(At Man City) the defining moments in second half went against us and we are left to look back on result that could and should have been better," he said.

"We have come away from a number of high-profile games this season counting the cost of fine margins - think back to our defeats at Arsenal and Tottenham and our draw at Liverpool, when we had chances to win.

"We have shown we have the ability and spirit to compete with the best teams in the Premier League. But competing is not enough. We want to win."

Manchester United looked to have got their groove back in February but Rasmus Hojlund’s injury has coincided with a return to their miserable form of the autumn and winter. They simply must be more adventurous against Everton, but Sean Dyche’s side have impressed away from home this season and more than capable of earning at least a point.

Draw, 2-2.

Everton have Idrissa Gueye as a major doubt, with the midfielder not expected to return from a groin injury this weekend.

Arnaut Danjuma is not yet ready to make his comeback from an ankle issue.

"Arnie continues to make progress but is not there yet. Gana will be unlikely - but has a chance, I'd say," said Dyche. "There are a few [other] knocks and bruises but everyone [else] should be alright."

Manchester United have Marcus Rashford and Jonny Evans available, having been injury doubts after last weekend’s derby.

Rashford was forced off after 70 minutes against City and Erik ten Hag said afterwards that the striker has "had his problems with an injury", before adding that Evans was also "not 100 per cent" ahead of the game. However, both have recovered and are in contention.

Rasmus Hojlund, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire are still out, but could return next week in the FA Cup, while Mason Mount is out until after the international break. Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia will miss the rest of the season.
