We went into that pause with a 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur in north London, with Matthijs de Ligt rescuing a point with a header at the death, after Richarlison thought he'd notched a stoppage-time winner at the other end, moments earlier.
That dramatic last-minute intervention saved our current five-game unbeaten run, which we'll be looking to extend to six with the Toffees' visit to M16 on Monday (24 November).

HOW TO WATCH AND FOLLOW
Taking the Monday Night Football slot, our 20:00 GMT kick-off will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Main Event.
However, you can warm up for the game with us over on MUTV from 18:45 GMT, where we'll have an exclusive briefing from Ruben Amorim and pre-match insight from former Reds Quinton Fortune and Danny Webber.
You'll be able to keep track of that, plus interactive content, match updates, live stats and much more in the United App and on ManUtd.com throughout the evening.
TEAM NEWS
Benjamin Sesko, Harry Maguire and Casemiro were all forced off the pitch with injury at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in our last outing.
The latter has been in action since with Brazil, playing a full 90 minutes against Senegal at Emirates Stadium, a game that saw him score with an excellent curled finish, before turning out for an hour a few days later against Tunisia in Lille, suggesting that he should be available for Monday's game.
However, official updates are still pending on Sesko, who missed international duty with Slovenia, and Maguire, who wasn't selected as part of Thomas Tuchel's England squad. News on that pair could be provided by Amorim in his press conference on Friday afternoon.
Kobbie Mainoo was absent from our last matchday squad, and Lisandro Martinez is still working through his recovery plan from a serious knee injury. Amorim may also provide further information on that duo.
Jarrad Branthwaite, who has been out since pre-season, and Nathan Patterson, who had a "small procedure" on his groin towards the end of last month, are the only expected absentees for Everton, as things stand, unless any further concerns are raised by David Moyes in his meeting with the media in the build-up to the game.
FORM GUIDE
The Reds approach Monday night's fixture on a five-game unbeaten run, having recorded victories against Sunderland, Liverpool and Brighton & Hove Albion, before being held to consecutive draws on the road against Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur.
Amorim's charges have made Old Trafford something of a fortress since the beginning of the new term, having beaten every side other than league leaders Arsenal at the Theatre of Dreams so far, a record we'll be looking to extend for the Toffees' visit.
Moyes' men make the trip from Merseyside in slightly patchier form, with a loss against Spurs, a draw against Sunderland and a win against Fulham in their last three outings.
Their away form is a point of particular concern for the club, having registered just one win on the road in all competitions, that victory coming against last-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers in the league, who beat them a few weeks later at the same venue in the Carabao Cup.
That is a factor United will hope to capitalise on, as we go in search of three points on Monday.
PREVIOUS MEETINGS
United have not been beaten by Everton, home or away, since April 2022, when a single Anthony Gordon goal at Goodison Park proved the difference.
Since that day, the two sides have met seven times, with the Reds recording six wins and one match, our latest clash earlier this year, ending in a draw.
That 2-2 scoreline in February, with Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte getting on the scoresheet for us, was the first time the Toffees had managed to score against us for over two years, with Beto and Abdoulaye Doucoure holding us to a point in our last-ever meeting at Goodison.
We have been a thorn in the side for Everton for some time now, a status Amorim's men will be looking to retain for a little while longer.
