Everton will entertain Manchester City at Goodison Park this Sunday afternoon as both sides look to get the better of each other in the Premier League. The Toffees secured a dominant 5-1 win away at Brighton and Hove Albion recently. In contrast, Man City were held to a 1-1 draw by Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League earlier this week.
Everton Vs Manchester City: Talking Tactics
Sean Dyche will opt for a 4-5-1 formation and is expected to instruct his players to keep a solid defensive shape at the back and try to catch the opposition off-guard on the counter.
Pep Guardiola will set his side up in a 3-2-2-3 formation and might ask his men to dominate the ball and engineer enough chances to win this clash on the road.
Team News
Everton
Seamus Coleman, Ben Godfrey and Andros Townsend will be sidelined for this game due to injuries. Otherwise, Dyche has no fresh injury worries to deal with this weekend.
Everton Predicted XI
Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Mina, Mykolenko; Iwobi, Garner, Gueye, Doucoure, McNeil; Calvert-Lewin
Manchester City
Nathan Ake is a major doubt for this game as he continues to recover from a thigh problem. Otherwise, Man City should have a strong squad available for this game at Merseyside.
Manchester City Predicted XI
Ederson; Akanji, Dias, Laporte; Lewis, Rodri; Mahrez, Alvarez, Foden, Grealish; Haaland
Key Men
Everton
Abdoulaye Doucoure needs to have a good game at the centre of the park if Everton are to have any chance of claiming something from this home game.
Both James Tarkowski and Yerry Mina need to be solid defensively so that they can keep the Man City attackers frustrated during the 90 minutes.
Manchester City
Erling Haaland has enjoyed a fantastic season in the Premier League thus far. We can once again expect him to be a major threat up top.
Both Jack Grealish and Phil Foden will have to carry most of the creative burden for the Mancunian giants in the final third.
