Comments, predictions Everton vs Leicester: Lucky draw

Everton and Leicester City meet at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Saturday, a week after both teams picked up crucial away wins. Before Sean Dyche was sacked earlier this month, this was billed as a 'six-point' game in the relegation battle. Since then, however, Everton have moved closer to the relegation zone, and to Leicester City themselves, who sit just behind Everton in the table ahead of this weekend's game.

Latest Everton vs Leicester team information

Everton's win at the weekend came at the expense of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Orel Mangala, both of whom could be out for a considerable period and have played their last game for the club. Beto is Everton's only available striker, with Armando Broja and Youssef Chermiti still injured. Mangala could be out for the rest of the season with ligament damage, meaning the timely return of James Garner is crucial. Moyes also revealed that Dwight McNeil is due to see a specialist after suffering a knee problem. He could potentially need surgery. Everton are also running low on players, with the transfer window almost halfway through and no major signings yet.

As for Leicester City, coach Van Nistelrooy may welcome back Mads Hermansen after 6 weeks of treatment. This goalkeeper will bring the necessary confidence in front of the goal. Meanwhile, midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is also likely to play after the recovery process, but Ricardo Pereira and Abdul Fatawu will continue to be absent due to long-term injuries. Leicester also brought in only one new player, Woyo Coulibaly, in the January transfer window. He had a brief debut against Tottenham, and helped the home team win 3 points in that match.

Latest expected lineup Everton vs Leicester

Everton:

Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Lindstrom, Gueye, Garner, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Beto

Leicester City:

Hermansen; Justin, Faes, Vestergaard, Kristensen; Winks, Soumare; Ayew, El Khannouss, Decordova-Reid; Vardy

Latest Everton vs Leicester football prediction

Many believe Everton are now out of the relegation battle after impressive displays under David Moyes. Everton climbed into safety after a 1-0 win over Brighton thanks to Iliman Ndiaye's penalty.

After Everton's win, Moyes is also more confident about his ability to pick up points in away games, something Sean Dyche has failed to do in recent times. After a run of 11 games without a win, the recent results seem to be a bit of a positive sign. The team has just won two consecutive matches since last April, and has scored in two consecutive matches for the first time since last October.

Everton are currently seven points clear of the relegation zone and just a similar distance behind Manchester United in 12th place, and Leicester City in the immediate aftermath. David Moyes' side could extend their lead over the relegation zone to 10 points if results are favourable in their games against Ipswich Town and Wolves. Although Leicester won 2-0 on their last visit to Goodison Park last season, that was not enough to keep them in the Premier League, so Goodison Park is where Leicester's players are aiming to repeat that feat.

Overall, Leicester have not played very well against Everton, when after winning in November 2022, they have lost up to 7 recent matches when facing The Toffees. The recent victory over Tottenham is probably an improvement for coach Van Nistelrooy after a series of 7 consecutive defeats in the Premier League, something he will hope to bring to Goodison Park soon. The team has just escaped the red light group, but the upcoming goal is to maintain that achievement with a win. Away form is still a big concern for home fans when they have gone through a long period of not being able to win when playing away from home, and only got a single draw against Ipswich. Besides, only the bottom team in the rankings, Southampton, has a lower away score than the King Power team this season.
