Team news
Morgan Schneiderlin looks set to start here having completed his move from Manchester United during the week.

He will start in place of Idrissa Gueye, who has gone off to the African Cup of Nations with Senegal.

Fernandinho remains suspended, meaning Pablo Zabaleta could feature from defensive midfield.

Leroy Sane is a doubt and City will again be without both the injured Ilkay Gundogan and Vincent Kompany.

Expected starting XI’s
Everton (4-2-3-1): Robles; Coleman, Funes Mori, Williams, Baines; Schneiderlin, Barry; Valencia, Barkley, Mirallas; Lukaku
Manchester City (4-2-3-1): Bravo; Sagna, Otamendi, Stones, Kolarov; Zabaleta, Toure; Sterling, Silva, De Bruyne; Aguero
