What TV channel is Man City vs Everton on? Kick-off time, team news, predictions

Manchester City kick off 2020 with a home fixture against Carlo Ancelotti's Everton at the Etihad Stadium on New Year's Day.

Pep Guardiola side bounced back from their defeat against Wolves with a win at home to Sheffield United with Sergio Aguero and Kevin De Bruyne getting on the scoresheet.

Everton will be another difficult challenge for the Blues given their recent form following the sacking of Marco Silva. Ancelotti has overseen victory in both of his Premier League games in charge of the Toffees against Burnley and Newcastle.

Nevertheless, City haven't tasted defeat against Everton since January 2017 and the Merseyside side haven't won an away fixture against the Blues since December 2010.

What TV channel is Man City vs Everton on?

Manchester City vs Everton will be shown live on BT Sport 1 on Wednesday, January 1. Coverage starts at 5:15pm.

Kick off is at 5:30pm at the Etihad Stadium.

Team news for Man City vs Everton

City defender Aymeric Laporte posted a promising injury update on his Instagram showing him wearing boots as he continues his rehabiliation. However, the fixture against the Merseysiders will be far too soon for the Frenchman.

David Silva and John Stones remain injury doubts after missing out on the squad which faced Sheffield United. Therefore, City fans could get to see Eric Garcia in action again.

Leroy Sane remains sidelined.

On the other hand, Everton are set be without Alex Iwobi due to a thigh problem. Ex-Manchester United midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin is also a doubt.

Jean-Philippe Gbamin and Andre Gomes are long-term absentees.
