Everton vs Manchester City – Match preview and team news

Manchester City

Rodri is making progress with a groin injury, but remains a major doubt for Monday. He has not yet returned to team training after missing the last two fixtures. Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol also remain unavailable as they continue their respective recoveries. Pep Guardiola stated that only a victory will suffice at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Form

Everton

Everton have suffered back-to-back 2-1 defeats, with both matches decided by gut-wrenching 90th-minute winners for the opposition. Despite sitting eleventh, they are only two points behind seventh-placed Bournemouth in a congested race for Europe. David Moyes is still seeking his first career win over Pep Guardiola, a record that currently stands at 13 losses and two draws.

Manchester City

City are currently on a six-match winning streak across all competitions, conceding just two goals during that period. They are unbeaten in their last 11 league games, collecting 24 points and conceding only eight goals—the best returns in the division during that timeframe. Guardiola’s side has also won their last eight consecutive league visits to Goodison Park, Everton’s old home.

Predicted lineups

Everton Predicted XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye; Beto

Manchester City Predicted XI: Donnarumma; Nunes, Khusanov, Guehi, O’Reilly; Silva, Gonzalez; Semenyo, Cherki, Doku; Haaland
