Match Preview of Man City vs Everton
Manchester City welcome Everton to the Etihad Stadium on New Year's Eve in a game with very differing implications for both.
Frank Lampard's job at Everton is arguably now the most fragile in the whole top flight.
Arsenal's excellence means that despite a very strong start to the season, Man City find themselves five points adrift from the top.
Thirty-five points from a possible 45 is a phenomenal start, but a defeat to Brentford before the break has been very costly.
Over the course of a 38-game season though, City are still the most fancied side to finish on top.
That is largely thanks to the presence of Erling Braut Haaland up front, who made it 20 Premier League goals for the season already in their 3-1 win over Leeds United on Wednesday, the fastest it has taken anyone to reach that milestone in a campaign.
Our Predicted Lineups
Man City possible starting lineup:Ederson; Walker, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo; De Bruyne, Rodri, Bernardo Silva; Mahrez, Haaland, Foden
Everton possible starting lineup: starting lineup:Pickford; Patterson, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Onana, Gueye, Iwobi; Gordon, Maupay, Gray
Who will win the match?
We say: Manchester City 3-0 Everton. If Man City are in the mood, nothing can stop them, and they should have no problem creating chances against the side who have conceded the most shots in the league. Once Everton go behind, they very rarely recover, so an early City goal could lead to a long afternoon for the Toffees in Manchester.
