Double Gameweek 24 comes to a conclusion as Everton and Manchester City meet at Goodison Park.

Kick-off on Merseyside is at 20:15 GMT.

The two most-owned players from these two teams don’t feature tonight although the no-shows from Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.7m) and Ilkay Gundogan (£6.1m) aren’t shocks, with their managers having previously ruled them out in their pre-match press conferences.

Pep Guardiola gave an update on Gundogan ahead of kick-off:

The injured Gundogan is one of three players who started the win over Tottenham Hotspur who doesn’t feature in Pep Guardiola’s starting XI.

The other two are Oleksandr Zinchenko (£5.5m) and John Stones (£5.2m), who both drop to the bench.

Kyle Walker (£6.1m), Ruben Dias (£6.1m) and Riyad Mahrez (£8.1m) all return to the visitors’ side.

Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m) makes his return to the City matchday squad following a month on the sidelines and is among the substitutes, along with Sergio Aguero (£10.3m).

Guardiola has threatened more changes when City head to Arsenal this weekend, saying:

If you see the schedule that we have… we have a game every three or four days, everybody is going to play. Against Arsenal, we are going to play new ones.

Carlo Ancelotti has gone one better than his opposite number, making four alterations from the defeat to Fulham at the weekend.

Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford (£4.8m) returns from a rib injury, with Robin Olsen (£4.5m) making way to accommodate the England international’s comeback.

Yerry Mina (£5.5m), Michael Keane (£5.1m) and Alex Iwobi (£5.9m) are also back in the line-up, with Seamus Coleman (£4.8m), James Rodriguez (£7.7m) and Andre Gomes (£5.3m) all dropping to the bench.


Manchester City XI: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo, Silva, Rodri, Foden, Mahrez, Jesus, Sterling.

Everton XI: Pickford, Mina, Keane, Holgate, Godfrey, Davies, Doucoure, Digne, Sigurdsson, Iwobi, Richarlison.

    Jammy Foden owners there, Coleman deflection gifted the goal

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Pickford in goal so would have gone in regardless of deflection

  20. Fudgy
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    That's 100% an own goal. Disgrace if it's given to foden.

    1. Limbo
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      It was on target?

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Didn't look it to me. Dragged it.

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      100% on target so Foden goal

    3. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Shot on target

    4. Neevesy
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Fudgy are you a child?

      I don't own Foden, but that's his goal all day long.

    When will Sterling be subbed on? I am not seeing him

  25. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    With only Cancelo and Digne, could’ve done without that...

  26. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    That's definitely a Foden goal. Was headed for the bottom corner.

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 16 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

  29. AlCapwnUK
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Definitely Foden goal, decent chance it beats the keeper without the deflection

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Going wide, he shanked it IMHO.

  30. fusen
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Considering how attacking Cancelo is, where he is basically playing midfield, has he been a bit of a failure in terms of attacking returns?
