Everton, Recent FormLosing 2-1 away to Tottenham Hotspur won't leave the Everton squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. Their share of possession in that meeting was 39%, while racking up 18 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target, in contrast to Tottenham Hotspur, who had 13 shots on goal with 6 on target.
Manager Sean Dyche will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches overall.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games. If they want to get anywhere this season, they'll need to do something very quickly to fix their home form, having lost 5 of the first 9 league games at Goodison Park.
Abdoulaye Doucouré will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Everton.
Manchester City, Recent FormManchester City manager Pep Guardiola will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Crystal Palace. In that game they had 74% possession and managed 19 attempts on goal, with 9 on target, compared to Crystal Palace who had 5 attempts and 2 on target.
Whilst Guardiola will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 12 goals conceded in the same period. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games; however, overall they've scored in 15 of their 17 games this season.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
Erling Haaland has scored 5 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Everton.
The last time these two teams met Manchester City enforced their superiority over Everton with a comfortable 0-3 win.
The Citizens will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Everton, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 12 meetings between the two. Everton have failed score a goal in 4 of their last 5 league meetings with Man City. In the previous 5 matches between these sides, Man City have shown they know their way around The Toffees defence having scored 13 times against them in those 5 matches. The Toffees have struggled for goals when Man City comes to visit Goodison Park, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
Man City have dominated this away fixture in the past, winning the last 6 times in a row that they have played Everton at Goodison Park in the league.
With 2 goals notched up from the last 3 league meetings against Everton at their home ground Goodison Park, Man City man Phil Foden will be looking for more of the same in this one.
Everton manager Sean Dyche has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Dele Alli (Hip), Jarrad Branthwaite (Physical discomfort), Séamus Coleman (Groin), Abdoulaye Doucouré (Hamstring), André Gomes (Calf), Vitaliy Mykolenko (Groin) and Ashley Young (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Pep Guardiola has a number of injury concerns in his Man City squad to contend with: Kevin De Bruyne (Hamstring), Jérémy Doku (Leg), Erling Haaland (Foot) and Zack Steffen (Knee surgery)
