Moving scenes before the game
Everton players come out draped in Ukraine flags and City with Ukraine flags on their tracksuits while the tannoy plays 'He aint heavy, he's my brother'. Zinchenko for City on the bench is in tear, while the Toffees Mykolenko, also a substitute, is similarly moved.
17:16
Absence of DCL a blow
Frank Lampard confirmed before kick off that Dominic Calvert-Lewin is unavailable due to an adductor injury.
17:06
Going for ten in a row
It is the holy grail with the Old Firm when it comes to league titles, but it is a pretty handy record in any head-to-head and City can achieve this if they win at Goodison tonight.

Will we see a response from City
It seems a long time ago last Saturday when City were humbled by Spurs and it will be interesting if we see Pep Guardiola's side smarting from this performance and keen to put down a marker on Merseyside.

Toffees to do Reds a favour?
It might be bittersweet if they were to help Liverpool's title chances but Everton are not in their usual position between mid-table mediocrity and qualification for minor European spots. Just a point off the drop zone, albeit with games in hand, they need a point today at least.
