There is no doubt now that Pep Guardiola’s men are in a full-blown crisis. Following their defeat by Aston Villa over the weekend, the Champions have won just one game in their last 12 games. They seem to have lost almost all their confidence. That said, they will fancy their chances of getting back to winning ways in a home game against a team towards the bottom of the table.

The Toffees have only suffered one defeat in their last five games. That includes getting a draw against high-flying Chelsea at the weekend. Sean Dyche has just about dragged his side away from the drop zone, but they do need to start turning some of those draws into victories. Given their struggle for goals – they’ve only scored 14 in 16 games – that is easier said than done.

Tune in as this game will have huge implications at both ends of the table. Make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
