Will the Toffees go down in Manchester?

A few matchdays into the second half of the season, Everton FC find themselves in the red zone of the Premier League. The Toffees are fearing for their survival in the English top flight, which is mainly due to the ten-point deduction for breaching the financial rules.

Everton have not won any of their last six league games since their 2-0 win against Burnley FC. It is quite possible that the negative streak will continue on matchday 24 of the Premier League. After all, they face a mammoth task this weekend with Manchester City. Our Manchester City vs Everton betting tip targets a win for the Cityzens at odds of 1.22.

City have won each of their last nine competitive games since the draw against Crystal Palace and are brimming with confidence. In the Premier League, the Sky Blues have shortened the gap in the championship race and are now just two points behind LFC with a game in hand

With a bit of help, they could possibly leap to the top of the table this weekend. However, City will have to do their homework before they can do so.

Manchester City – statistics & current form

Manchester City are in the fast lane. Although the Sky Blues have not had the best start to the season, head coach Pep Guardiola’s squad are still the hottest contenders for the league title this season. With one game less to play, City are currently just two points off the top of the table.

The Sky Blues can therefore dethrone LFC on their own and are no longer reliant on support. Since matchday 17, City have won each of their last five league games and are brimming with confidence. In fact, the Sky Blues are on a winning streak of nine matches in a row across all competitions.

It is quite possible that this run of form will continue against Everton. Guardiola’s team will start Saturday’s league clash as favorites. The Cityzens have not lost any of their last 14 competitive matches against Everton since January 2017. During this period, Manchester City have won a total of twelve matches. Most recently two wins in a row in the Premier League

Will the record against Everton be extended?

In the Premier League, City have not lost any of their last 13 league matches against Everton. In fact, the Sky Blues are unbeaten in twelve home games in a row at the Etihad Stadium. City have won seven of these twelve matches. It therefore makes sense to place a bet on Guardiola’s team for Manchester City v Everton.

The size of the bet also depends on LUGAS. In the league, City have a record of 7-3-0 after ten home games. Pep Guardiola’s team scored a total of 27 goals in these ten matches – an average of 2.70 goals per home game.

It’s quite possible that this will continue against the Toffees. City have won four of their last five H2hs in Manchester. In three of those four victories, the Sky Blues prevailed against Everton by a margin of two goals or more. A clear victory is also obvious this time.

Predicted Manchester City line-up:

Everton – Statistics & current form

Everton have slipped down the table after three consecutive draws. Although the Toffees have picked up more points than twelfth-placed Bournemouth with a record of 8-5-10, the traditional Liverpool club are 18th in the table due to the ten-point penalty imposed by the English Football Association.

The Toffees are therefore worried about staying in the league and are dependent on every point. Last week, head coach Sean Dyche’s team scored in a hard-fought league clash against Tottenham. The point – a 2-2 draw, mind you – was only secured thanks to a last-minute goal from Branthwaite.

It was certainly commendable, as the two goals against Spurs also ended Everton’s goal drought in the league. The Toffees had not scored in the previous three league games. Nevertheless, even after the draw against Spurs in Manchester City v Everton, it is still a risky bet to give a tip in favor of the visitors. Above all, the most recent H2h speaks against it

Are Everton doomed to lose against City?

In their last two matches, Everton have lost to Manchester City. The Toffees conceded three goals in each of these two league encounters. A negative trend that is likely to continue in the upcoming league game on Saturday. In their last 11 league H2hs, Everton have a miserable record of 0-2-11 anyway.

It would be all the more surprising if the Toffees improve on that in the upcoming league game of all things.

Everton have already picked up 17 points away from home this season. Statistically, this makes the Toffees the sixth-best away team in the table. Since the 2-0 win at Burnley, however, they have failed to pick up maximum points away from home three times in a row. Everton have even lost two of their last three away games.

Predicted Everton line-up:

Manchester City – Everton head-to-head comparison / H2H record

Manchester City and Everton will meet for the 197th time in total. The Sky Blues from Manchester lead the H2H with a record of 80-48-68. City have not lost to Everton for almost seven years. Since then, the Cityzens have a record of 12-2-0 in all competitions, and it is quite possible that they will extend that record on Saturday.

In the first half of the current season, City prevailed with a 3-1 win at Everton’s Goodison Park. It was the second win in a row in which City scored three goals against the Toffees.

Manchester City – Everton betting tip

Manchester City are unstoppable at the moment. The Sky Blues have won each of their last nine competitive matches. With the victory against Brentford on the last matchday of the Premier League, City even set the course for the top of the table. With one game less to play, the Sky Blues are now just two points adrift of leaders LFC.

It is all the more important to win the upcoming home game against Everton. If the H2h between the two clubs is anything to go by, Saturday’s clash will suit City just fine. City have won 11 of their last 13 matches against Everton in the Premier League

We expect Manchester City to win this one too. Pep Guardiola’s team shouldn’t have too much trouble against Everton and should bag three points. The Sky Blues have only lost one of their last 35 home games in the Premier League this season. Our Manchester City vs Everton betting tip is aimed at “HT/FT: 1/1” at odds of 1.69. We are betting six units
