After the sad news that Everton’s former manager, Howard Kendall, had died it’s set to be an emotional afternoon at Goodison Park.
It’s already been confirmed that both sides will observe a minute’s silence ahead of the 3pm kick off.
The homeside, who will hope for a repeat of last season’s convincing 3-0 victory over United line up as follows:
Everton XI (to play Man Utd): Howard, Coleman, Stones, Jagielka, Galloway, Barry, McCarthy, Naismith, Barkley, Lennon, Lukaku.

The visitors also ring the changes after their 3-0 humbling at the Emirates before the international break.

Interestingly, Daley Blind is one of those changes, dropping to the bench and allowing Phil Jones to return to the United defence.
