Good morning and welcome to LIVE coverage of Manchester City v Everton from the Etihad Stadium. We get underway at 12.45pm.

Fellaini's shot is cleared off the line by Savic, but there goes the whistle. A 2-0 win for City. They are top of the table again before Man United's game at Stoke.

City fans enjoying the moment by doing the Poznan. Going to be four minutes of time added on.

GOAL!! Milner scores his first Premier League for City!! Fine pass from Silva and Milner runs through to lift the ball over Howard. 2-0. Surely all over.

Savic is closed down well by Saha before Jagielka picks up a yellow card after taking out Balotelli with a sliding challenge.

Silva scores for City, but he is offside. Decent play by Balotelli, but his companion had just strayed offside in the box.

Fine raking effort from Toure from 25 yards out. Ball travelled through the air with some speed, but Howard tips it wide before Savic catches Rodwell late at the corner.

So no Tevez today for the home side as City opt to introduce Savic to take over from Nasri. A 1-0 win will do them now.

Drenthe gets a sight at goal from 25 yards, but just too much air under that effort as the ball spins over the bar.

Kompany back to win the ball from Fellaini. Everton need to throw caution to the wind in these dying moments.

Vellios arrives to replace Coleman for Everton. How the visitors would love him to pop up with a goal in this match.

Balotelli far from happy after he is penalised for a late tackle on Distin. Looks like he may have had a point.

Coleman tries to slip in on the blind side from Drenthe's ball, but just too much pace on the ball as it flies behind for a goalkick.

Another change then for City as Milner replaces Aguero. For once, hasn't been side day today.

Kompany takes out Saha with a late challenge on the edge of the home box, but Webb somehow doesn't see a foul. What was the referee thinking of?

Balotelli caught offside up front. Meanwhile, Cahill seems to have an ankle wrapped in ice. Not good news for them.

Toure tries to pick out Aguero on the run, but the ball races off the surface before flying through to a grateful Howard in the visiting goal.

Neville departs to be replaced by Royston Drenthe for the visitors.

Balotelli bundles Jagielka to the ground as Everton prepare to make another change here.

Balotelli lets fly from distance, but that shot flies wide of the goal. City suddenly in the mood and so are the fans. Everton must weather this storm.

Silva hits the post from 12 yards out! So unlucky. More decent play by Balotelli out wide. Silva seemed to take an age before hitting Howard's left hand post with the keeper well beaten.
