Key facts

• Ben Godfrey, Yerry Mina and Andros Townsend will not play for Everton
• Ricardo Pereira and Ryan Bertrand will not play for Leicester City
• Everton has won 3 of the last 5 against Leicester

Everton is much higher on the Premier League standings and has had a better record against Leicester in recent years but this game will be a different story. The Foxes waited long for their first win of the season and relatively quickly they got away from the bottom of the league. Both Everton and Leicester are defensively oriented and at the moment, both of them may be satisfied by winning a point today. Anyway, Leicester is still in a difficult situation and will give their best effort to avoid losing which will lead them to at least a draw in this game. Therefore, I would back up Leicester today to win or a draw for 1.61 odds.
