Everton vs Manchester City Prediction & Expected lineups - Premier League

The upcoming Premier League clash between Everton and Manchester City promises to be a compelling encounter, given the contrasting trajectories of both teams. Everton, currently positioned 13th in the league, has demonstrated resilience with an unbeaten streak in their last six home matches . This recent form is underscored by a surprising victory over Nottingham Forest, although their historical performance against Manchester City remains bleak, having not secured a win in their last 15 meetings . The psychological burden of this record may weigh heavily on the Toffees as they prepare to face such formidable opponents.

Everton won their last game 1-0. This was a road win against Nottingham Forest at City Ground. The Toffees had five shots on target and boasted 58% possession, with Abdoulaye Doucoure bagging a late winning goal.

Manchester City won their previous game which was at home. It was a 5-2 victory against Crystal Palace at Etihad Stadium. The North-West team racked up nine shots on goal and enjoyed 68% possession, while Kevin De Bruyne found the net along with four other players.
