Everton vs Manchester City Short Preview: Everton has made a steady start to their 2015-16 premier league campaign having register a draw and win in their opening two games, their last weeks 3-0 win over Southampton will make Manchester City a little uncomfortable because this is a fixture where City usually struggle. In the 2014-15 league game at Goddison park, Everton held City to a 1-1 draw when Steven Naismith scored minutes after City took the league. Manuel Pelligrini is unlikely to change the starting lineup and City fans will have to wait to see Nicolas Otamendi making debut for his new team.
Everton will have Kevin Mirallas back after passing fitness test but they will be without the likes of Captain Baines, Darron Gibson, Tony Hibbert and Steven Pienaar who are all sidelined due to injuries. Manchester City’s David Silva will be the main man in this game as he connects midfield to forward line while City will be happy with the form of senior players like Yaya Toure, Kompany and Aguero. Everton has scored 5 goals in the opening two matches where Romelu Lukaku produced an inspired 2 goal performance against Southampton and Ross Barkley has scored in both matches so far.
