Everton have seen their relegation chances increase after suffering a thumping 3-0 defeat to Manchester City, putting the Toffee’s to within a point of the bottom three.

Key Moments: Everton vs Man City

  • City took the lead early into the first-half, as Ilkay Gundogan’s superb improvised finish found the bottom corner.
  • Erling Haaland doubled the visitors’ lead with a bullet header, taking his tally to 36 goals for the season – extending the Premier League record.
  • Guardiola’s side started the second-half in similar fashion, as Gundogan made it three with his second of the game, from a beautiful free-kick
  • Everton failed to find a consolation goal and the visitors returned to Manchester with all three points.


Can Sean Dyche Keep Everton Safe?

Everton have never been relegated from the top division, making them a household name in England’s top-flight. However, after a run of poor form that saw Frank Lampard be made surplus to requirements, Sean Dyche was left with a mountain to climb.

The former Burnley manager has kept hope alive at Goodison Park, recording huge victories against Arsenal and Brighton. This has not been enough to make Premier League safety a certainty, as they sit 17th – one point above Leeds in 18th.

Sean Dyche’s side will travel to the Midlands for their next vital league fixture, as they take on Wolves next Saturday. Julen Lopetegui’s side suffered a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United in their last match and will be looking to finish the campaign strongly.

The Toffee’s will have a strong squad for their final push of the season, with Seamus Coleman the only absentee after suffering a season-ending injury against Brighton.
