Everton manager Frank Lampard has admitted that his side cannot give Erling Haaland "the spaces that he wants" when his side take on Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on New Year's Eve.
Pep Guardiola's side return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon knowing that a win against Everton would see them move two points behind Arsenal in the table. Haaland will no doubt play a pivotal role in the match as the 22-year-old looks to add to the 20 top-flight goals he has already scored this season.
As City look to record their third win since the break in the season, Lampard is all too aware his side will need to be at their best if they are to take anything from the game.
