The Toffees will face Manchester City without loanee Jack Grealish, forcing a change in the starting lineup. Everton restarts the Premier League campaign at the Etihad, where they have not won since 2010.
Both teams are in the top 10 of the table heading into Matchweek 8. Everton's presence is more surprising than City's. The Toffees last won against City in January 2017 at Goodison Park.

Everton will be without Jack Grealish, who is on loan from City.
