Everton prepare to entertain Manchester City at Goodison Park on Sunday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Blues are clearly on top, having won 39 and lost only 15 of the 77 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Goodison Park was just last season, in December 2003, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premiership match.
