The race for Champions League will hot up this weekend
Three points for Manchester City will see Pep Guardiola's side move above Nottingham Forest, and within a point of third-place Newcastle, who take on Aston Villa, live on Sky, later on this afternoon.
Live Premier League table
Defeat for the current holders of the Premier League would open the door for them to drop to as low as 7th by the end of the Easter weekend should Villa and Chelsea find victories this weekend.
More De Bruyne magic to come?
Kevin De Bruyne’s had a hand in six goals in his last six Premier League starts (1 goal, 5 assists).
He’s scored and assisted in 28 games for City, with only Mohamed Salah for Liverpool (41), Wayne Rooney for Man Utd (35) and Thierry Henry for Arsenal (32) doing so more often for a single club.
Moyes record vs Man City
David Moyes is winless in his last 15 Premier League meetings with City (D2 L13).
However, as Everton manager, he only won more league games against Fulham (14) than he did against City (12), winning each of his last four against us at Goodison Park.

Jones Knows: Toffees to provide tough test for Man City
To win games against David Moyes' Everton is a tough task. They have won 21 points from 13 Premier League games since Moyes returned as boss - only five other sides have picked up more in that time. Only Liverpool at Anfield have beaten them in their last 12 games.
Man City will need patience to unlock the door and that may take time which means their shots lines are of interest with Sky Bet.
Pep Guardiola teams against Moyes ones away from home have averaged a whopping 20.5 shots per game across their last eight meetings as Moyes is happy to defend in a low-block and offer up low probability chances to possession-obsessed teams like City.
The Manchester City 17+ total shots line looks achievable at 11/8 with Sky Bet.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1

Moyes eyeing more of the same while Pep's hand is forced
Sky Sports' William Bitibiri:
"David Moyes' game planned worked down to the tee as they stole all three points in injury time at Nottingham Forest. As Moyes names the same starting 11, he'll be hoping for more of the same against a Manchester City side that will dominate possession.
"Ederson's injury during City's victory over Crystal Palace means the tried and tested understudy in Stefan Ortega, starts."
Everton unchanged, Foden returns to Man City bench
Everton boss David Moyes has stuck with the same starting eleven that edged Nottingham Forest last time out.
Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola names four changes from the side that completed a comeback win over Crystal Palace last weekend. Stefan Ortega, Matheus Nunes, Savinho and Bernardo Silva coming into the starting eleven in place of Ederson, Rico Lewis, Mateo Kovacic and James McAtee.
Phil Foden is on the bench after missing City's last outing.
