Manchester City will today look to end 2022 on a high as they welcome Everton to the Etihad on New Year’s Eve.
The reigning Premier League champions quickly settled back into their work after the World Cup break with a comfortable win over Leeds, Erling Haaland netting another brace to take his league tally to a remarkable 20 goals already.
Frank Lampard’s Everton side are the latest to be tasked with trying to slow him down. The Toffees suffered late disappointment against Wolves last time out, falling to a defeat that leaves them 17th in the table and a point above the relegation zone.

Man City vs Everton prediction
Man City were beaten by Brentford in their last home match in the league, and only edged past Fulham in the one before that, but a more routine afternoon is expected here.
The problems continue to mount for Lampard and his Everton side - anything other than a heavy defeat at the Etihad would be a surprise.
