The action in the Premier League continues this weekend, as Man City bid to move to the top of the standings. The reigning champions will come up against an Everton side that have dropped into the relegation places in recent weeks.

Before Betting On Man City vs Everton

The signs are ominous for the Premier League, as it appears as though Man City are just hitting their stride in the top-flight. City come into this round of fixtures after winning each of their last five matches, leaving them just two points off the top of the standings with a game in hand.

Meanwhile, it is a worrying period for Everton. The Toffees have dropped into the relegation places after failing to win in their last five matches in the competition. However, each of their previous three fixtures have ended in draws. Everton most recently played out an entertaining 2-2 tie with Tottenham at Goodison Park.

However, the advantage is firmly with City this weekend, as they have gone unbeaten across their last 13 league matches against the Toffees, winning on eleven occasions over that period. Their most recent loss against Everton was suffered in the form of a 4-0 scoreline in January 2017.

Everton had won four away matches in succession against City between 2008 and 2010 but they have taken just five points from their last 12 visits. City also have an excellent record against sides starting the day in the relegation zone, having gone 23 without defeat, winning on 21 occasions.
