Everton have been warned there will be no drop-off from Manchester City even if Pep Guardiola decides to shuffle his pack for their Premier League showdown on Sunday afternoon (2pm).
A trip to Goodison Park comes in between two Champions League semi-final matches with Spanish giants Real Madrid for star-studded City and Guardiola will have to be mindful of the quick turnaround when naming his starting line-up. Rotation, though, is something the Catalan has form for throughout his City tenure.
Guardiola made six changes from the team that beat Leeds United for the first leg against Real, but resisted any urge to make substitutions at the Santiago Bernabeu in what was a compelling opener. City are ready to welcome Real to the Etihad Stadium for the second leg straight after playing Everton.
