Football - Premier League - Bet Now at Bet365
Everton have been assured by Sir Alex Ferguson that 'lightning won't strike twice' when they travel to take on Manchester United this Sunday.
The Toffees memorably clawed back two late goals to draw 4-4 at Old Trafford in the corresponding fixture last season.
It was a result which went on to have vital ramifications for the Red Devils, as rivals Manchester City went on to claw back an eight-point gap with six games left to lift the title.
United will be wary of the threat posed by David Moyes' team, as they also beat them 1-0 on the opening day of the season at Goodison Park. Everton are available at15.00to repeat that scoreline at Old Trafford on Sunday while United are1.10to win the Premier League title.
Ferguson admits he has a difficult balancing act over the next few days as he tries to get his players to focus on the job in hand - with a Champions League tie against Real Madrid also on the radar next week.
The United supremo concedes: "As soon as the draw was made there was an anticipation about the Madrid tie. But the Everton game is a big game in itself. We threw it away against them last season but I wouldn't anticipate that happening again.
"We'll still need to make sure we play well, though."
