Manchester United's next five Premier League games and how they compare to nearest rivals

Manchester United returned to winning ways in the Premier League thanks to an impressive 2-1 win over Everton on Sunday. The come-from-behind win saw goals from Antony and Cristiano Ronaldo cancel out Alex Iwobi's opener at Goodison Park.

The victory sees Erik ten Hag's side move up to fifth, with 15 points from eight games played. The games come thick and fast before the season pauses for the World Cup next month. United, like all their rivals, have a clutch of matches coming up and by the end of the run, they will have a clearer indication of whereabouts they will be challenging this season.

The next five league games see them face tricky tests against plucky Newcastle, and top four rivals Tottenham and Chelsea. Games against West Ham and Aston Villa are also potential banana skins for United.
