Two teams with plenty to play for will lock horns when Everton host Manchester City in their English Premier League game Saturday.
Man City know nothing but three points will do if they are to harbor any hopes of keeping the title race alive, with Manchester United currently 12 points clear and just ten games remaining.
Everton, on the other hand, are competing for a Champions League place, and will be equally desperate for three points against the Premier League champions.
Everton manager David Moyes expects an open encounter at Goodison Park, with both teams needing to win. "Teams come here and they can shut up shop," Moyes said. "You have got to break them down but you tend to find that the better teams will have a go and it will make for a bit more of an open game.
"I can't for a minute see Manchester City coming here and thinking that they have got to stop Everton. They will look to try and win. I've got to say that every game we play at Goodison we look to win - that doesn't alter whoever we play.
"We'll have a big job stopping them and we have to go and make sure that we take our opportunities.
"I think we're playing a really good team and this would be a hard game no matter if you were in great form or not. We were in really good form when we went to the Etihad earlier in the season and we got a really good draw. We did okay on the day but it was a very hard game."
Everton will be without Phil Jagielka (ankle) and Tim Howard (back), with the duo still to recover from their respective injuries.
City will also miss two of their key men with Sergio Aguero and skipper Vincent Kompany ruled out. Jack Rodwell, Micah Richards and Maicon are sidelined as well.
