Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Manchester City

Saturday’s action concludes at Goodison Park as Everton and Manchester City go head-to-head at 5.30pm.

As expected, Pep Guardiola has taken no chances with Sergio Aguero’s fitness ahead of the midweek Champions League quarter-final first leg against Liverpool.

Sold by a hefty 347,000 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers last week, the Argentine misses out altogether today, with Gabriel Jesus leading the line against a defence that’s mustered just a single clean sheet in their last 11 league matches.

With no Aguero, Kevin De Bruyne is the most captained player in this one, with 2.6% armband backing.

Yet it’s David Silva who has been City’s most prolific player on the road, averaging 7.7 points on his travels.

Guardiola’s men arrive with nine clean sheets away from home – more than any side.

With four goals in his last three league outings, the Toffees’ winter signing Cenk Tosun looks the likeliest to breach that resilient backline.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter
