Hill Dickinson Stadium
Everton's state-of-the-art Hill Dickinson Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock represents a new chapter in the club's history. After 132 years at Goodison Park, the Toffees moved into their spectacular waterfront home in the summer of 2025. The 52,888-capacity arena features a stunning design with all four stands integrated into one continuous bowl, creating an intimidating atmosphere for visiting sides. This will be Manchester City's first competitive visit to the new ground.
Head-to-Head Record
This fixture represents one of English football's most historic encounters, with over 200 meetings between the clubs dating back to 1899. Manchester City hold the upper hand in the all-time record with 79 victories compared to Everton's 63, with 46 draws. However, Everton have historic bragging rights in the biggest meeting between the clubs — a 3-0 victory in the 1933 FA Cup final, the only showpiece occasion the two have contested. In recent years, City have dominated, remaining unbeaten against Everton in their last 17 encounters.
Last Meeting
Manchester City defeated Everton 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium on October 18, 2025. Erling Haaland proved the difference with a quickfire second-half double, scoring his 10th and 11th Premier League goals of the season. David Moyes' side frustrated City for almost an hour, with Iliman Ndiaye causing problems and Beto missing a golden early chance with the goal at his mercy. Haaland broke the deadlock on 58 minutes with a towering header from Nico O'Reilly's cross before adding a second five minutes later. Jordan Pickford twice denied Haaland a hat-trick in stoppage time as the Toffees at least limited the damage.
Everton 2025/26 Season
David Moyes' return to Everton has reinvigorated the club following a turbulent few seasons. The Toffees are enjoying life at their new stadium, where the passionate home support has created a fortress-like atmosphere. Iliman Ndiaye has emerged as a key creative force, while Jordan Pickford continues to prove his worth between the posts. Everton sit comfortably in mid-table but harbour ambitions of qualifying for European competition in their first season at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
