Manchester City will be aiming to make it successive wins in the Premier League when they continue their campaign with a trip to Everton on Saturday afternoon.

The Citizens recorded a 5-2 victory over Crystal Palace last time out, with the result moving them into fifth spot in the Premier League table, one point behind fourth-placed Newcastle United.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their showdown with Everton, who recorded a standout 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest last time out.
