http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes, is confident his side can continue with their impressive record against the Citizens in the recent past, when the two teams lock horns at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
The Toffees will go into the match a little short of confidence, as they have struggled to chalk out points recently. The blue Merseyside club have just assembled 9 points from their last eight games, and currently hold the sixth slot in the table.
In contrast, the Citizens are the only unbeaten team left in the competition. Besides, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 have not lost a single match at home in their last 36 outings and are just a point adrift of Manchester United at the top of the table.
However, Moyes will be lifted by his side’s phenomenal record against the Eastlanders in recent past. Everton have won eight of their last 10 encounters with City, and edged their Saturday opponents 1-0 in their previous meeting.
The 49-year old Scott said the Toffees will go into the match with the intent of securing all three points. He planned on making the most of their psychological advantage, and feels they have got what it takes to snap the Citizens phenomenal streak at the
Etihad Stadium.
“I think we've had some good performances (against City),” he told the reporters in an interview.
“I don't know if they're up there with the best in my time here but I think we've done quite well when we've played them and we'll try to do that again.”
“They're up at the top of the league just behind Manchester United. I think by their standards, they've maybe not played as well as they can but I think their points total has been very good.”
Everton lost their skipper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 during the midweek.
The Goodison Park chief welcomed the return of the 25-year old, and feels that he can create the difference on Saturday.
“We were pleased to have him (Gibson) back. We've been short of numbers and we've missed him,” he added.
It was Gibson’s solitary goal which decided the fixture between the two teams back in January.
