Manchester City hosts Everton in round 12 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, November 21st at Etihad Stadium (Manchester)
The reigning champion of England continues to chase the Premier League leader. A misfire in the match against Crystal Palace at the end of October did not spoil the mood of the players. Manchester City defeated Club Brugge KV in the next Champions League game and consolidated its position in the group standings. Then there was a derby over the weekend, in which the Citizens dealt with Manchester United at Old Trafford (0-2). With Chelsea failing to beat Burnley (1-1), Josep Guardiola's men narrowed the gap to first place to three points.

In the summer, there was a change in the camp of Everton. Carlo Ancelotti moved to Real Madrid, and his place on the coaching bridge was taken by Rafael Benitez, who has not shown himself in a positive way lately. Now the Toffees are going through a period of decline. A winless streak in the English Premier League lasts five rounds in a row: three defeats and two draws. As a result, the Blues moved to the middle of the Premier League standings. Before the break for the matches of the national teams, Everton shared points with Tottenham (0-0). Both those and others showed a weak game in the attack, so the result on the scoreboard was understandable.
Manchester City is on a roll. Having beaten Manchester United in the derby, the Citizens showed that they continue to play top-quality football and have dominance in every segment of the match. The upcoming opponent should not cause problems for the hosts. Everton looks weak in terms of productive actions on the pitch. The results only confirm this fact. Even in home matches, the Toffees sometimes deliver only two shots on the opponent's goal. In addition, the Citizens have a clear advantage in head-to-head confrontations. Manchester City won eight head-to-head matches with a total score of 23-5. The last game at Etihad, which took place in May 2021, ended with a 5-0 defeat of the Toffees. We expect that this time the hosts will gain another confident victory.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win with -1.5 handicap
