  • PRVW
    The teams are in the tunnel and almost read to make their way out. Kickoff not far off now!
  • PRVW
    Everton go five at the back, with Keane, Zouma and Mina in as the three central defenders. Gylfi Sigurdsson anchors the midfield alongside Andre Gomes and Dominic Calvert-Lewin will tandem with Richarlison to lead the line.
  • PRVW
    Raheem Sterling drops to the bench, joining Sergio Aguero and Kevin de Bruyne who return to the squad. Otamendi comes in at the back and Gabriel Jesus once again starts up front.

    A result for the 'Toffees' though could see them leapfrog Manchester United and put themselves into real contention for a spot in Europe next season.
  • PRVW
    It's an important game for both sides... City need to get back on track after relinquishing top spot in the league to Liverpool following their loss against Chelsea. A win at home would be the perfect tonic.
