Everton vs Manchester City Prediction and Betting Tips | 27th December 2023

The Premier League is back in action with another set of matches this week as Everton take on Pep Guardiola's Manchester City side in a crucial encounter at Goodison Park on Wednesday.

Everton vs Manchester City Preview

Everton are currently in 17th place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The Toffees slumped to a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur in their previous game and will need to bounce back this week.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are in fifth place in the league table at the moment and have largely failed to meet expectations this season. The Cityzens won the FIFA Club World Cup over the weekend and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Everton vs Manchester City Prediction

Manchester City have an impressive squad at their disposal but have fallen behind in the title race this season. The Cityzens are yet to live up to their lofty standards and will need a drastic resurgence to give the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool a run for their money.

Everton are dangerously close to the relegation zone at the moment and face a daunting task on Wednesday. Manchester City are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.

Prediction: Everton 1-3 Manchester City
