How the teams line up
Confirmed line-ups arrive about an hour before kick-off.
Home
Everton
A steady mid-table team, Everton defend well in front of their own fans at Hill Dickinson Stadium but can struggle to turn possession into chances.
Away
Manchester City
One of the league's best sides. Man City should have most of the ball on the road at Hill Dickinson Stadium, so the question is whether Everton can stay compact for 90 minutes.
Match preview
Everton host Manchester City at Hill Dickinson Stadium in the Premier League 2026/27. Man City get a 49% rating from our model, which expects 1.13 goals from Everton and 1.63 from Man City.
