The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of matches this weekend as Everton take on Pep Guardiola's impressive Manchester City side in an important encounter at Goodison Park on Sunday.
Everton vs Manchester City Preview

Manchester City, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been impressive this season. The Cityzens were held to a 1-1 draw by Real Madrid in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
