Everton return to Premier League action this weekend as they take on Manchester City.
The second international break of the season is drawing to a close, with Everton preparing for a trip to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
The Toffees are only two points behind Manchester City, so a win would see them leapfrog Pep Guardiola’s side in the table.

Jamie Carragher predicts what will happen when Everton face Man City
Everton actually managed to pick up a point at the Etihad last season, so they have reason to be confident.
Man City have shown frailties this season, too, as they’ve suffered defeats to Brighton and Tottenham Hotspur.
But, Jamie Carragher has tipped City to beat David Moyes’ side due to Erling Haaland’s brilliance.

“After a slow start, Man City are only three points behind first place, and Haaland should ensure they get their third league win on the bounce.”
Carragher predicted a 2-1 win for the Citizens.
Tyler Dibling may get the nod to start
It’s been a slow start for Tyler Dibling, as he’s made just one Premier League start since joining in a £40m transfer from Southampton.
Dibling was dragged off at half-time against Crystal Palace just before the break, with Moyes clearly not happy with his performance.
However, he may get another chance to start against Manchester City as Jack Grealish will be unavailable as he can’t face his parent club.
That would see Iliman Ndiaye moved back to the left, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall through the middle and Dibling on the right flank.
