Everton vs Manchester City: Preview, team news, prediction for Premier League match

Everton and Manchester City meet at Goodison Park for the final time this weekend.

The Toffees will move into a brand new home next season, leaving their longtime home for a state-of-the-art venue. But before they head to greener pastures, they must finish a Premier League season that has seen them rise from early relegation candidates to a midtable side under David Moyes.

As for City, they are fifth heading into the weekend and look to hold onto the Champions League spot they currently occupy.
