Man City vs Everton prediction and odds ahead of Premier League clash

Pep Guardiola is arguably facing one of the toughest periods of his managerial career as he prepares Manchester City for their encounter with Everton. While Guardiola is eager to restore the dominant form that City have been known for in recent years, his team has struggled significantly, securing just one victory in their last eight Premier League matches.

Currently languishing in 7th place, City have suffered three defeats in their last five games and six overall this season, leaving them 12 points adrift of league leaders Liverpool. The prospect of replicating their remarkable 21-match unbeaten streak from the 2020/21 season, which saw them lift the Premier League trophy despite similar setbacks, seems daunting at present.

Everton, on the other hand, are gradually finding their feet as they seek to distance themselves from relegation danger. With just one defeat in their last five outings—albeit with only one win and three draws—Everton enjoy a slight four-point cushion above the drop zone.

The Toffees have cause for optimism beyond the pitch as well. The long-awaited end of the Moshiri era has finally arrived after protracted takeover discussions, and with a new stadium on the horizon, Evertonians have fresh reasons to celebrate. However, Sean Dyche and his squad face a formidable challenge: overcoming a seven-year winless streak against Manchester City, having not defeated them since 2017 across all competitions.
