Manchester City will be hoping to give the Etihad Stadium crowd something to cheer about when they play host to Everton in Sunday’s Premier League game.
Pep Guardiola’s men have won just one of their last three home games in the league, suffering a shock 2-0 defeat against Crystal Palace in their last match in their own backyard.

Gabriel Jesus and Phil Foden are the joint 9/2 (5.50) favourites to open the scoring, with the latter looking stronger value at that price following three goals in his last five club appearances.
With Dominic Calvert-Lewin still out injured, Richarlison and Salomon Rondon are the visitors' 16/1 (17.0) front runners to break the deadlock against the champions.
Manchester City vs Everton preview
Palace’s 2-0 win at this ground last month came as such a big surprise partly as it ended a run of five consecutive home league clean sheets that stretched back to last season.
However, it is hard to see Rafa Benitez’s men pulling off a similar shock as they struggle for cutting edge without Calvert-Lewin, scoring just six goals in their last seven league fixtures.
What’s more, City boast an excellent recent record against this opposition, emerging victorious in each of the last eight encounters - scoring 23 goals and conceding just five.
