Manchester City hosts Everton in round 21 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Wednesday, January 1st at Etihad Stadium (Manchester)
The Citizens gained 13 victories in 20 matches, tied 2 times and suffered five defeats. Man City is the most effective in the attack, scoring an average of 2.7 goals per game. In the last meeting, Guardiola’s men beat Sheffield at home (2-0), so they managed to rehabilitate themselves for the away failure with the Wolves. Manchester City is playing with varying success, and the team probably already dropped out of the champion’s race because of it. But the team of Guardiola will intend to fight for the second line and solve certain tasks.

Everton appeared completely different after the dismissal of the head coach, and the team began to play even better after the appointment of Carlo Ancelotti. The Toffees do not lose in the championship for five games, and they gained three victories. With the new coach, Carlo Ancelotti, the team won two victories in a row. The Liverpool club defeated Burnley at home (1-0) and coped with Newcastle away (2-1). Now Everton is located exactly in the middle of the standings and has 25 points.
Man City is the obvious favorite of the upcoming match and it will probably earn three points. But will this match be easy for the Citizens? The Toffees are on a psychological rise now. Let it be, the last matches again Man City were unsuccessful for Everton (four defeats in a row), but now there are all the makings to impose a tight fight. Moreover, Guardiola's men are not so convincing in recent matches. The current champion of England rarely hammers someone this season. In this case, I think that the coefficient for the hosts is too low, and the visitors are quite capable of keeping a +2 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Everton to win with +2.0 handicap
