A match with implications on both ends of the Premier League standings takes place at Goodison Park on Sunday. Man City will be looking to remain top of the table with victory on the road, while Everton will be looking for one remaining win that they feel would confirm their top-flight status.

Before Betting On Everton vs Man City

Man City come into this fixture on Sunday with a one-point advantage at the top of the standings, while they also have a game in hand to retake the lead in the championship battle with Arsenal should they require it. Pep Guardiola will be left with a number of dilemmas ahead of this match, as the second leg of their Champions League semi-final showdown against Real Madrid takes place just two days after this clash.

City’s recent record in this fixture is incredibly strong, as they have registered wins in each of their previous five. However, that is as many wins as they had recorded in their last 26 top-flight visits to Goodison Park. A victory on Sunday would also see them become only the second team to win six games on the bounce away from home against the Toffees.

Everton should come into this game in good confidence, as they registered a shock 5-1 away win against Brighton last Monday. However, they haven’t won back-to-back games in the Premier League since October. Meanwhile, they have landed victory in just four previous matches in 46 attempts against the side starting the day at the top of the standings.

The Toffees will also take confidence from their previous match against City this season, as they picked up a 1-1 draw at the Etihad earlier in the campaign. However, they haven’t gone unbeaten across both league matches against City since the 2016-17 season.

There is a sense that if there is to be one final twist in the title race, then it could come at Goodison Park on Sunday. We expect Guardiola to make a number of changes with the return match against Real Madrid in mind, and therefore, a chance will be taken on the draw.
