Premiership - Manchester City vs Everton Football betting preview

Manchester City V Everton

A win tonight for the home side will see them draw level on points with Everton and keep the dream of a champions league football on track. A few factors to consider here, firstly under Sven Man City have played quite well and have a very good home record. 9 wins from 13 and only one defeat is very good and im sure even the most loyal of fans would not have expected that at the start of the year. My only criticism is that they tend to play very defensively and can be a bit of a bore to watch at times. Nonetheless league standings don’t lie and they will be full of confidence coming into this one. Another fact is that Everton had a game midweek, sure it was at home and they didn’t have to travel but a game is still 90 minutes of effort and Man City may just be that small bit fresher tonight. I don’t see much between these two teams so every little bit in favour of one or the other could be the difference. Everton actually have a good away record but I often think that they raise their game for certain teams and don’t often beat teams that they are capable of beating.

Verdict

Man city’s unbeaten record was lost last time out though losing to Arsenal is hardly an embarrassment. Having conceded 3 goals in that game id be expecting a much better display defensively as its usually their most dependable section. Everton have a potential match winner in Yakubu and seeing him up against Richard Dunne and Micah Richards will be interesting. Benjani may yet prove to be an inspired but for City and ive a feeling he may just make the difference tonight. Im not expecting many goals and I don’t expect City to lose 2 in a row at home either so il take City draw no bet in case of a stalemate.

1 – 0 to the home side is my prediction
