Leicester City Preview – Can Foxes make it three on trot?
Recent wins against Sheffield United 2-1 away from home and a 3-0 romp at home over Brighton have helped restore Leicester City’s fortunes in the English top flight as The Foxes now sit in 3rd place and are just a point behind the joint-leaders at the summit, Tottenham and Liverpool, prior to Wednesday night’s clash with Everton.
Leicester’s season has been a little frustrating though so far as Brendan Rodgers’s side have been inconsistent, beating the likes of Manchester City 5-2 away from home but losing 2-1 at home to lowly Fulham being the perfect examples of their unpredictable nature.
The hosts have lost three of their last five matches at home as well in the Premier League which includes defeats to West Ham, Aston Villa and Fulham but what has been consistent throughout is the goalscoring ability of striker, Jamie Vardy (10 goals) and he’ll be looking to exploit any weaknesses in the Everton defence here.
Everton Preview – Can Everton frustrate Foxes?
A narrow 1-0 win at home over Chelsea in the weekend’s action in the Premier League handed Everton a welcome three points in the top flight which also helped lift The Toffees back up into 8th spot but there’s still plenty of room for improvement for Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Having gained just two wins out of their last eight matches overall, much of Everton’s early impetus has now been lost following an explosive start to the new season which saw Everton start the new campaign with four wins on the trot.
Results away from home have also dipped after that initial burst as the visitors have collected just one win from their last four outings on the road, which came in the shape of a 3-2 win at lowly Fulham but also included defeats at Southampton and Newcastle United.
