Manchester City welcome Everton to the Etihad Stadium, desperate for the three points that they hope will ignite their title campaign. The Blues have won just once in 12 matches, form that is reminiscent of their campaigns during the first part of the century.
Their only victory is a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest at the beginning of December and the festive period against some of the lower teams in the league may be the catalyst to picking some points up in the New Year.
Everton have regains some form since their struggles at the start of the season but are struggling to find goals, which may give City’s beleaguered defence a bit of a respite.
As usual, our team are here to give us their views and predictions of the game. Here’s what our guys think for the match against Everton.
Saul
City have to win some at this point. 2-1 City.
City 2-1 Everton
Thomas
It’s been a long December, but there’s reason to believe maybe this year will be better than the last 2+ months. City are home to Everton on Boxing Day and the lads could give no greater gift to the home fans than a festive season victory. It’s on my Christmas list for sure. Father Christmas delivers the win for City!!
City 3-1 Everton
Dillon
A disgusting 1-0 win
City 1-0 Everton
Will
City will win. Hopefully
City 3-0 Everton
Pete
City to turn on the style this week.
City 4-0 Everton
How We Did Against Villa
Well, Thomas was bang on the nose when he predicted a 2-1 win for Villa. Saul also predicted 2-1 but to City while Will must have cursed Phil Foden scoring to prevent a perfect score for him. Pete got the right goal difference, as did Saul and the right number of goals too.
Here’s the table:
