Manchester City – Citizens to Cruise to Three Points?
Before the international break, Pep Guardiola’s Man City crashed to a shock 2-1 home reverse to Brentford. Ivan Toney was on fire, netting the Bees’ two goals at the Etihad.
The City players returned from FIFA World Cup duty by beating rivals Liverpool in the Round of 16 of the EFL Cup. They then beat Leeds United 3-1 away from home in the Premier League last Wednesday.
The victory at Elland Road took Man City back above Newcastle United into second. However, Pep’s troops still trail leaders Arsenal by five points.
Man City is in great form at present. They have won six of their last seven across all competitions, with that loss to Brentford being one of only two Premier League reverses all season. Overall, the champions have won 11, drawn two, and lost two of 15.

Manchester City Injuries: Dias.
Everton – Another Damaging Defeat for Lampard’s Toffees?
Everton survived by the skin of their teeth last season, and Lampard’s men are embroiled in another relegation battle this time. Ahead of this round of matches, the Toffees are just a point and a place above the drop zone in the Premier League.
Inconsistency has once again been Everton’s biggest enemy this season. The pressure is starting to build up on the boss after his side has picked up a mere three wins from their opening 16. They have drawn five and lost eight of the other 13.
Since a run of four draws and two wins from six between August and October, the Merseysideiders have managed just one win in eight, taking four points from a possible 24. After a goalless draw with Fulham in late October, Everton has suffered successive defeats to Leicester City, Bournemouth, and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Toffees have drawn half of their eight away league matches. They have won just one away Premier League game this season, which was a 2-1 win at fellow strugglers Southampton three months ago.
Everton desperately needs to start putting points on the board after a bad run of results. However, getting anything at the Etihad will be a tall order for Lampard and his wounded troops.
We track down the best Man City vs Everton odds and give you our Premier League picks for this one.
Everton Projected Lineup: Pickford, Tarkowski, Patterson, Mykolenko, Coady, Onana, Iwobi, Gueye, Gordon, Gray, Maupay.
Everton Injuries: Garner, Townsend, Mina.
