Pep Guardiola Says “Anything Can Happen” Ahead of Everton Clash

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola is wary of the threat that Everton pose ahead of their Premier League clash on Sunday. The champions go into the fixture one point ahead of Arsenal with one outstanding fixture. A win for City at Goodison Park will see them open a four-point gap before the Gunners play Brighton at the Emirates.

The Catalan manager is aware of the challenge that Everton will post to his team. Speaking during his pre-match press conference, Guardiola said, “There were big results in the Premier League but we thought in the last games everyone plays for something and will be tough. It can happen.”

Guardiola’s cautious approach is due to the physicality that Everton bring to their game. In their previous match against Brighton, the Toffees scored the first goal in the first minute and added another soon after. Despite their mid-table position, Everton are known to make life difficult for the top teams.

City have had a fantastic start to the season, having already opened up a considerable lead over their rivals, Manchester United. However, they will be acutely aware that in the Premier League, anything can happen. Guardiola said, “Anything can happen.”

Despite the threat that Everton pose, City remain favourites to win the game. They have an incredible squad with players like Sergio Aguero, Kevin De Bruyne, and Raheem Sterling, who have been in fantastic form. City is the top-scoring team in the Premier League, having scored 41 goals in their 13 games so far.

The Catalan manager is expected to have a full-strength squad available for the Everton game, barring any last-minute injuries. City has had a fantastic run of form recently and is currently on a three-match winning streak. Fans will be hoping that they can continue this run of form against Everton and extend their lead at the top of the table.

The game against Everton is the first of a busy December schedule for City, with games against Watford, Chelsea, and Leicester City to follow. Guardiola will be hoping to keep his players fresh for these games, with the busy festive period just around the corner.

In summary, Guardiola’s comments are a reminder that despite City’s fantastic start to the season, they cannot take anything for granted in the Premier League. Everton are a capable team and has given the top sides a run for their money this season. City will need to be at their very best if they are to secure three points at Goodison Park.
