Everton (+750) vs. Manchester City (-275), Draw (+425) | 2.5 (-160/+125)

Manchester City is the talk of the soccer world right now as they continue to dominate the European front. They’re holding the top spot in the Premier League, they’re 90 minutes away from punching a ticket to the UCL Final, and they’re set to play in the FA Cup Final against Manchester United on June 3rd. City will travel to Goodison Park on Sunday morning for a 9:00 a.m. ET kickoff against Everton (32 points).

What I was alluding to with the long introduction for this match is that Manchester City has plenty of meaningful football to be played over the next 30 days. Considering they’re taking on an Everton side that’s fighting for its EPL life right now, I think this presents a potential letdown spot for the Cityzens. I can see their minds being away from this match as Pep Guardiola’s men have a massive UCL tilt against Real Madrid on Wednesday.

Everton is coming off of a colossal 5-1 beatdown of Brighton & Hove Albion Monday and they haven’t lost yet this month. The People’s Club is 1-2-1 over its last four matches so I expect them to hang around in this one. Let’s take the 1.5 goals with Everton on Sunday morning.

Bet: Everton +1.5 (-130)
