Everton - Manchester City tip, prognosis & odds 02/17/2021 - Premier League
While Manchester City marched on against Tottenham and celebrated their 16th competitive win in a row, Everton FC experienced a serious setback in the fight for the Champions League places. The Toffees lost 2-0 at home to Fulham on Sunday, but could draw level with city rivals Liverpool with a win over Sky Blues in the catch-up game three days before the Merseyside Derby.

However, in the run-up to the game between Everton and Manchester City, the odds of the bookmakers completely deflect towards the guests, as the odds comparison of the betting base shows.
Not surprisingly, because the Citizens not only have an absolute form high in general, but have always been victorious from the field in the past five meetings with Everton. We expect defensive blues who have to readjust after an incredible nine goals from the last three competitive games.

Accordingly, against patiently playing Sky Blues it could be a rather poor match, in which we expect a result like the 1-0 or 2-0 away win of the Guardiola team. Correspondingly much value can be found in the tip of under 2.5 goals at Everton against Manchester City, which also includes a rather surprising result such as the goalless draw or even a 1: 1.

Everton - Statistics & Current Form
For a long time it looked as if Everton FC could compete with the elite of the top English division for the first time in several years. Between the fourth and sixth game day, the Blues even led the Premier League table for three weeks.

But then, after the international break in October, the Toffees started a negative series, who only won a single win from the seven league games that followed and then drifted back into midfield.
Too much remained against the small teams

Since then, there have always been respectable results such as victories over Chelsea, Leicester, Arsenal and, most recently, Tottenham in the FA Cup. However, also the setbacks against the comparatively small teams of the Premier League that cannot be controlled.

It was only on Sunday that the Blues lost 2-0 at home to Fulham FC of all places - an opponent who had only won two of their 22 league games before. Also because of such results, the kickers from Merseyside simply do not manage to stay in the top four permanently.
Won just one of the last 14 Premier League games against City
Free soccer tips
Carlo Ancelotti's team still has two catch-up games up their sleeves. Should a threesome against Aston Villa succeed in addition to the three against Manchester City, the Blues would suddenly be back in fourth place. All the less, something can be left behind in this catch-up game before the eagerly awaited Merseyside Derby against a shapeless Liverpool is on the program on Saturday.

Also because the Toffees only won one of their last 14 Premier League games against the Sky Blues, they go into this home game as a blatant underdog. The bookmaker Betsson, tested by Wettbasis, offers odds of 9.50 for the home win of the Ancelotti selection at Everton against Manchester City. No wonder, because the Blues have lost the last two Premier League home games
Expected formation of Everton:
Olsen - Digne - Godfrey - Keane - Holgate - Gomes - Davies - Doucouré - Rodríguez - Richarlison - Calvert-Lewin

Manchester City stats & current form
At first it didn't look like Manchester City could again reach for the stars in the Premier League in the 2020/21 season. Already on the second match day there was a 2-5 home defeat against Leicester City, which was followed by a 1-1 draw at newly promoted Leeds.
Free soccer predictions
Overall, the Sky Blues only got twelve out of 24 possible points from the first eight league games. But because not a single match was lost in the period that followed, the Citizens gradually stabilized again and ultimately took the lead on matchday 20.

Already seven points ahead of second place
Since then, they have consistently expanded that top position. There are already seven points on city rivals Manchester United. Should a three-point jump out at Goodison Park in the catch-up game against the Blues, the lead would increase to ten points, which would amount to a small preliminary decision despite 14 games still to be played.

By the way, City would also break an old Red Devils record. Only Manchester United had won the first ten league games in a calendar year in spring 2009.
Only eight goals conceded from the last 21 league games
That it will work out with the 17th competitive game win in a row and the tenth league win in the calendar year 2021 and that Everton against Manchester City tip 2 will work out, in any case, looking at the performance data of the Sky Blues, it seems extremely likely. When it comes to choosing Pep Guardiola, practically nothing burns defensively.
Free soccer predictions
After City had already conceded six goals after two match days, only eight more goals came from the subsequent 21 league games. Overall, the Citizens are the best defense in the Premier League. In addition, there is the current form strength of Ilkay Gündogan, who is the most successful City Goalgetter with his eleven goals and almost completely forgot the injuries of Kevin de Bruyne and Sergio Aguero.

At Everton against Manchester City, the forecast must primarily take into account the soaring Sky Blues, who have won their last 16 competitive games. Defensively, City is also absolutely flawless, while in the game forward a form-strong Gündogan outshines everything.
