Match Preview
Manchester City will host Everton at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday, 18 October, in a match that promises to be intriguing given the contrasting forms of both teams. City, currently in strong form with four consecutive wins, will look to maintain their momentum as they push for the top of the Premier League table. Their attacking prowess has been evident, particularly at home, where they have consistently found the net. Everton, on the other hand, have shown signs of improvement with two wins in their last five matches, but they remain vulnerable defensively. Historically, City have had the upper hand in this fixture, winning five of the last ten encounters, suggesting a potential challenge for the visitors. One key angle to consider is Everton's ability to score away from home; they will need to find a way to breach City's defence if they hope to secure any points. With both teams having the potential for goals, the match could see over 2.5 goals, especially if City’s forwards are in form.
