David Moyes will be hoping for a response from his Everton side on Monday, as the Toffees have suffered defeats in back-to-back Premier League fixtures. Everton have dropped to eleventh in the standings, but they remain just two points adrift of the top seven.
A response is likely, as the Toffees haven’t suffered three on the bounce since January 2025. However, they will need to see out of their fixtures better after conceding 90th minute winners in their previous two.

The pressure in the Premier League title race will be back on Man City on Monday, and they could kick off at the Hill Dickinson Stadium trailing Arsenal by as many as six points.
However, their form is extremely reliable, having avoided defeat in their last eleven EPL fixtures, and conceding just eight goals over that period. No side in the competition have picked up more points and conceded fewer goals over the same period.

- Man City have avoided defeat in their last 17 EPL fixtures against Everton, recording 14 wins and picking up three draws.
Everton vs. Man City Prop Picks
Jeremy Doku could be a key player in the final third for Man City on Monday. The winger has registered four assists to Erling Haaland in 2025-26, and only Callum Hudson-Odoi has created more chances following dribbles than Doku (24).
Everton vs. Man City Picks
There is unlikely to be a twist in the Premier League title race on Monday. Man City have been in excellent recent form, while Everton have looked fatigued. City’s dominant head-to-head advantage over the Toffees is also impossible to dismiss.
