Leicester City vs Everton Preview
- Tournament: Premier League
- Date: Saturday, September 21
- Kick-off Time: 2:00 pm GMT
- Venue: King Power Stadium, Leicester.
It is a battle of revival as two English Premier League sides Leicester City and Everton Football Club face-off with a mission to secure their first win in the ongoing top-tier league. Both sides have had horrible campaigns in the first four weeks, with hosts Leicester City managing two draws with two losses. While, things have been way tougher for Everton, who lost all their games and are yet to secure a point.
Leicester City had some tough opponents in the early days. They started with a bright shine, after forcing Tottenham Hotspur to share the spoils. But lost the following two games, and added misery to their future. The side did make a comeback against Crystal Palace in the last fixture.
Everton are having the worst start possible for a club in the top tier. They have lost all their four games, and have also encountered a recent defeat in the EFL Cup 3rd round against Southampton FC. Even a point will be like a boon for them.

Key Players to Watch in Leicester City vs Everton
Stephy Mavididi (Leicester City)
Stephy Mavididi from the left is a force to admire. From giving perfect passes to the forwards to going down to protect their own half, Stephy Mavididi knows it all. The 26-year player can also take the responsibility to score goals like he did previously.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton)
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is probably the only player who can make Everton’s come-back possible. Despite the bad results, Calvert-Lewin is always up, trying to find the back of the net. He has two goals and an assist in four league games so far. The 27-year-old missed the Southampton clash, but now is all out to fight.
Leicester City vs Everton Prediction
