Manchester City will be aiming to tighten their grip on top spot when they face Everton at Goodison Park this afternoon.
City, who were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw when the two sides met at the Etihad Stadium earlier this season, will move four points clear of second-placed Arsenal with a victory. The Blues have won each of their last ten league matches and will be keen to boost their confidence levels ahead of Wednesday night's Champions League semi-final second leg against Real Madrid.
City, who drew 1-1 with Madrid in the first leg in midweek, defeated Leeds United 2-1 in their last league outing, creating a four-point advantage at the top. Arsenal, however, reduced that gap to just a point with a 2-0 win at Newcastle United the following day.
