Manchester United's quest for a top-four finish in the Premier League continues this weekend when they go to Everton, who are currently in last place.

It appears as though Manchester United's chances of finishing in the top four in the Premier League are dwindling. United are currently seventh in the Premier League, three points off of fourth-place Tottenham Hotspur, and only a victory on Saturday will do.

Everton and Manchester United drew 1-1 at Old Trafford in their previous meeting. Anthony Martial scored in that game. However, the Toffees have since plummeted to the bottom of the standings and are currently in a relegation struggle.

Injured for the past few days, Cristiano Ronaldo is set to return to the squad on Saturday and start in the attacking position. The absences of Luke Shaw, Edinson Cavani, Raphael Varane, and Scott McTominay, according to Rangnick, imply that adjustments will be made to the team's starting lineup.

So, what kind of starting lineups do you think both clubs will go with? And, finally, what do you think the final score will be? In order to find out, we utilized FIFA 22 to predict the outcome of the Everton versus Manchester United match on Saturday. This is exactly what occurred.

The simulation anticipated the result of the Everton vs. Manchester United match.
We used FIFA 22's kick-off mode, but we didn't control any of the sides; instead, we selected the teams and let the match play out on its own to provide us with a score prediction.

Everton will likely line up in a 4-4-2 system, with the following players in the starting lineup: Pickford; Coleman; Holgate; Keane; Kenny; Gordon; Allan; Doucoure; Iwobi; Richarlison; Calvert-Lewin.

United are likely to line up in a 4-3-3 shape, with the following players in the starting lineup: De Gea; Dalot; Lindelof; Maguire; Telles; Fernandes; Fred; Pogba; Rashford; Ronaldo; and Sancho.

Anthony Gordon was causing havoc for Manchester United on the right wing for Everton with the home crowd behind them. With Gordon's ingenuity, Everton had their greatest chance to go up in the first half, but David De Gea produced a crucial stop to keep United level.

De Gea did well to deny Richarlison

Gordon waited for Alex Telles to commit himself before tapping the ball around the Brazilian and rushing down on goal from the right side of the field. Richarlison's run off the shoulder of the United defense was intercepted by De Gea, who stopped the striker's close-range effort.

In the first half-hour, United failed to record a shot on target and Rangnick's team appeared lethargic. Ronaldo tried his luck on two separate times as he tested Jordan Pickford, and it was Jadon Sancho who scored United's first goal just before halftime to put the game out of reach.

Jadon Sancho made it 1-0 to Manchester United

Despite the fact that Michael Keane's attempted clearance did not find its intended target, Fred did an excellent job of reading the play and intercepting the ball. After winning the ball within his own half, the Brazilian played Sancho through on goal, and the winger stunned the Toffees with a first-time strike that flew over the keeper and into the top corner. Throughout the afternoon, Sancho was looking like United's most dangerous asset, and his performance was nothing short of spectacular. Second-half cross attempts from Sancho were numerous, but United couldn't add to their lead because of poor finishing from the visitors.

In order to try to tilt the game in their favor, both teams made a number of substitutes as the game neared its conclusion. Jesse Lingard came on as a substitute for United, and he appeared to have scored the team's second goal before the linesman's flag was raised.

Paul Pogba's bursting run into the box was met by a lofted through pass from Bruno Fernandes, and as the Frenchman faced a one-on-one with Pickford, he chose to square the ball to Lingard on the right, who swept the ball into an empty net to give United the victory. The goal was disallowed because Lingard was ahead of Pogba when he got the ball, and the goal was chalked off.

Salomon Rondon almost scored a late equalize for Everton after breaking past the United line and going one-on-one with David De Gea. However, the striker's lack of poise saw him drag his shot wide of the net. Three minutes later, the final whistle was blown, and Manchester United left Merseyside with a clean sheet.

Everton 0-1 Manchester United is the final score predicted by FIFA 22.
