Everton defender Johnny Heitinga is looking forward to their clash with Manchester City.

The Dutchman hopes to test himself against City's stars.

Heitinga told evertonfc.com: "They've got a lot of money, they spend a lot of money, they've got good players, they played Champions League this season and they are number one in the league. So it is nice to compare yourself with the players they have. It's a top team and hopefully we have our best day.

"It's always nice to play against good teams and that's why I'm here in the Premier League - because you play against a lot of good teams and a lot of good players."
