Manchester City vs Everton Preview and Team News

Manchester City Team News

Man City will look to extend their seven-game unbeaten run across all competitions. In the last round of the Premier League, Pep Guardiola’s men claimed a narrow 1-0 victory against Brentford, thanks to a first-half goal from Erling Haaland.

After dropping points earlier, City seem to have found their form. Currently, they sit fifth in the standings, only three points behind the leaders, Arsenal. However, a tough stretch of fixtures awaits them.

Rodri has suffered a hamstring injury and won’t be available. Abdukodir Khusanov and Rayan Ait Nouri are also sidelined, while Omar Marmoush is questionable and is unlikely to participate. 

Manchester City predicted lineup vs Everton (4-1-4-1): Donnarumma; O’Reilly, Gvardiol, Dias, Nunes; Nico; Savinho, Foden, Reijnders, Doku; Haaland.

Everton Team News

After a three-game winless run in the Premier League, Everton snatched a late 2-1 win against Crystal Palace. The hosts trailed at halftime, but first Iliman Ndiaye equalized from the penalty spot and then Jack Grealish sealed the win in stoppage time.

Following the result, the Toffees sit eighth in the table. David Moyes’s side have 11 points from nine rounds and are close to the Europa League zone

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has served his suspension and will be back in action. Jack Grealish won’t participate due to loan restrictions, while Michael Keane and Merlin Rohl are injured.

Everton predicted lineup vs Manchester City (4-2-3-1): Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Iroegbunam, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Alcaraz; Beto.

Manchester City vs Everton Main Match Info

Manchester City vs Everton Prediction, Odds

Manchester City approach the match as favourites. Playing at the Etihad, they rarely drop points, especially against mid-table opponents. Everton, by contrast, tend to struggle away from home, particularly when forced to sit deep in defence. 

City’s dominance in this fixture is obvious. The Toffees haven’t beaten them since 2017, and their most recent encounters have been one-sided, with the Cityzens comfortably controlling possession and limiting Everton’s chances. 

The visitors’ likely plan will be to stay compact and counter, but City’s pressing and ball recovery speed make that strategy difficult to sustain for 90 minutes. As such, the hosts should be able to claim all three points.

Manchester City vs Everton Betting Tip

Erling Haaland is in outstanding form. The Norwegian has now scored in 10 consecutive matches and most recently recorded a hat-trick against Israel during the international break. 

Beyond his form, Everton’s defensive metrics further support confidence in Haaland. Their expected goals against (xG) per encounter stands at about 1.42. Moreover, in away fixtures, the Toffees’ attacking output tends to decline, meaning much of the game is likely to be spent defending.

Haaland is often the focal point of City’s attack. Given that the hosts are expected to dominate possession and territory, the Norwegian striker should have plenty of opportunities to find the net at least once.
