No big surprises here except for a return to the lineup for Joleon Lescott. It also seems that Matija Nastasic might be injured, since he isn't on the bench either. Everton have been one of our bogey teams of the last few years, and were the last team to defeat City at Eastlands in a league match, in December 2010. But they go into this match having won only 1 of their last 8 matches, so hopefully City take advantage.

Comment away...
