Manchester City, the reigning Premier League champions, are facing a significant slump in their current season. Following a 1-1 draw against Everton on December 26, Manchester City found themselves in seventh place, five points off the top four and 14 points behind leaders Liverpool, who have a game in hand[4].

In their recent match against Everton, Manchester City dominated in terms of shots, taking 22 to Everton's 8, but could only manage a single goal through Bernardo Silva. This draw is part of a larger pattern of poor form, with the team winning only once in their last 13 games across all competitions[1][4].

Manager Pep Guardiola has expressed his frustration but remains determined to turn the team's fortunes around. Guardiola acknowledged the team's current struggles, attributing them partly to the absence of several key players due to injuries. Despite these challenges, he emphasized the team's spirit and focus in training and their determination to improve[4].

The upcoming match against Leicester City on December 29 is crucial for Manchester City. Leicester City, who were recently beaten 3-1 by Liverpool, are currently in 18th place with 14 points from 18 games. This match is the first of four successive league games against teams in the bottom half of the table, providing Manchester City with an opportunity to regain their momentum[1][4].
