Everton vs Manchester City Prediction

Everton have looked more assured in recent weeks under David Moyes, but with Manchester City on the quest for a UEFA Champions League place, the Citizens will edge out a victory at Goodison Park, with Everton causing the visitors problems.

Everton’s form has been mixed in their previous five matches, as although the Toffees have lost only once in their previous five games, they have drawn three of those and lost one. David Moyes side are also winless in their previous four home games, with all four ending in a draw. Everton have shown they can give teams a tough game, though, scoring in seven of their last nine games.

Manchester City’s record against Everton gives them the advantage for this game, as the visiting side are unbeaten in the last 16 meetings between the two teams. Manchester City are also unbeaten in their previous five matches heading into this game.

In this game, we are going for a 2-1 victory for Manchester City. Everton are likely to score against a side who are without a clean sheet in four of their previous six away games. However, with City in good form heading into this game, they will likely secure a victory against Everton.
