Meanwhile, Millonarios' have a healthy number of fixtures under their belt already. They are currently at the top of the league standings, accumulating six points from six games thus far.

Everton vs Millonarios Prediction

Everton are playing their first pre-season game and might look rusty throughout the encounter. This will be Rafa Benitez's first match in charge and he will certainly be looking to start his tenure on a winning note.

Millonarios are a balanced outfit who have the ability to stage an upset, but ultimately Everton's quality should be enough to see them through.

Prediction: Everton 2-1 Millonarios
