Manchester City welcome Everton to the Etihad Stadium today as the Premier League season ends and the champions lift the trophy at last.
City were crowned title-winners for a third time in four years this month but have been in underwhelming form since, with two losses in their last three games ahead of this final match of the term.
In their most recent outing, Pep Guardiola’s team were defeated 3-2 by Brighton after going down to 10 men and blowing a two-goal lead. Guardiola has been attempting to keep his City squad in peak condition ahead of the biggest fixture of his reign, however, with next week’s Champions League final against Chelsea the priority.
Eighth-placed Everton, meanwhile, are in the running for a spot in the inaugural edition of the Uefa Europa Conference League. They need a seventh-placed finish to secure that, and must therefore achieve a better result here than Spurs can manage against Leicester.

What was the team news?
Having gone off injured in Man City’s defeat by Brighton, Ilkay Gundogan is unlikely to be risked this afternoon, while fellow midfielder Kevin De Bruyne is a doubt, as is Sergio Aguero – who will not want to miss what would be his final home game with the club. Joao Cancelo’s red card against Brighton keeps him out here.
Jean-Philippe Gbamin is still out for Everton, who are otherwise in good health.
