The forward will be hoping to start the Premier League match at Goodison Park today
Marcus Rashford has sparked speculation that he's back together with ex-fiancee Lucia Loi after the pair booked out a posh restaraunt last week.
The couple have been on and off ever since they were young and called quits on their relationship earlier in the year.
However, The Sun have now revealed Rashford and Loi recently booked out a posh restaurant in Manchester.
The footballer reportedly hired the cellar of a French wine bar that seats 18.

Bottles of champagne can cost a massive £950 a pop and a source said the mood was pleasant as the pair dined together.
“They were there for hours laughing and joking," the insider said.
“It’s a very nice place and he booked the whole of it for just the two of them.
“He couldn’t stop smiling.”
While their outing has sparked talk of a potential reunion, however, Loi still wasn't wearing her engagement ring.
The couple split in April this year and Rashford has since struggled on the field.
The forward has scored just one goal across all competitions for United so far this season.
That has led to some concerns within the camp that the forward is being distracted by personal issues off the pitch.
United are in Premier League action against Everton today as they look to continue their recent resurgence.
The Toffees will be fired up, however, after recently being docked 10 points for breaching Financial Fair Play regulations.
Rashford's form went off the boil when he split with Loi in 2021.
However, upon reuniting, he then produced the best performances of his career under manager Erik ten Hag last term.
Rashford's goals were enough to fire United back into the Champions League, having been forced to settle for Europa League football as a result of their poor showings in the 2021/2022 season.
And he was on target as United beat Newcastle 2-0 in the final of the Carabao Cup in February.
Ten Hag was recently asked about Rashford and his struggles in front of goal.
The Dutchman backed his star man to come good, insisting he's already proved he's capable of silencing his critics.
"He has proven it across all his career. He's scored more than 100 goals already in the Premier League," Ten Hag said.
"He scored last season; 30 goals, so there will come a moment in this season that it clicks."
He continued: "I think every striker, in the moment, has a period that he is not scoring.
"And then every striker starts to [over] think and when it happens, you know you were right and then you missed a moment because you have only a split moment.

"In the Premier League, Champions League, opponents defend so well, not only as individuals but as a team.
"You have to take benefit from that split moment to make it count that you have that half-a-yard split second and score a goal."
United beat Everton 2-1 in the same fixture at Goodison last season.
Antony and Cristiano Ronaldo struck to give the Red Devils all three points.
