Manchester United winger Antony is expecting a tough game against Everton this weekend.

Everton host Erik ten Hag’s side at the ridiculous time of 7pm on Sunday and they will be looking to make it three wins on the bounce for the first time since September 2021.

Frank Lampard watched his players beat Southampton 2-1 to build on what has been a strong start to the season, and it’s a long way from the relegation form they were showing last term.

Meanwhile, United will be trying to bounce back from last weekend’s 6-3 defeat at the hands of rivals Manchester City.

Antony will also look to become the first player in United’s history to score in his first three Premier League matches, after finding the back of the net against Arsenal and City.

Speaking ahead of the match, Antony explains that his new teammates have warned him about the task at Goodison Park.

“We know it’s going to be a difficult tough game,” Antony told Premier League Productions, as quoted by the Manchester Evening News.

“My team-mates have already spoken to me about this fixture. They said it will be difficult. We have to impose our game, show our strength.

“We shouldn’t get worked up and let our heads go down because of one game [at City], one result. Sadly, we lost the last [league] game but, when you think about it, we’ve beaten Liverpool and the league leaders Arsenal.

“Our season can’t be summarised by just one game. We’re now focused on the match against Everton and, God willing, we will get the three points.”
