(Manchester United News)
Former Manchester United and Everton midfielder Jesper Blomqvist believes Manchester United are primed to complete the double over the Toffees on Sunday.
The Reds secured a narrow 2-1 win at Old Trafford in October when David De Gea produced a stellar performance, including a penalty save to deny Leighton Baines, and are out to avenge the results of 2013/14 when Roberto Martinez's team came out on top on both occasions.
"I’m sure Everton are looking forward to playing United," the Swede told ManUtd.com at a Foundation event in Ordsall to promote the Red Heart United Legends game. "Obviously, it’s at home for them and Louis van Gaal understands it can be harder in these games. He said it was more difficult to play Aston Villa than some of the big games as the players have the right motivation already for them.
"Sometimes, when you play teams below you, it is easier to think you can be a bit more relaxed. This is an aspect to be aware of but they’ll know Everton away is a tough game. I think all the players know that. I realise United lost twice to Everton last year but that was a special season after Sir Alex left and I think this year is our time."
