Leicester v Everton Betting Tips – Premier League, 6th October 3.00pm

This could be a good contest at the King Power as Leicester have been doing pretty well lately. They are looking for what would be their third straight win in the league and they are three points better off than the Toffees are. Everton snapped a winless streak last weekend as they destroyed Fulham at Goodison. Will they get any change out of the Foxes? Read our predictions for Leicester v Everton.

Leicester News and Form

It is back to back Premier League wins for Leicester now taking them up to a W4 L3 record this season. So it’s not been too bad for them. They have been scoring freely that is for sure as they have averaged almost two goals per game this season. In all but two of their games, this term in the top flight they have scored at least two goals. Given the high scoring battles that Leicester and Everton have played out recently, 2.5 goals is great value at 9/10 odds* (betting odds taken on October 3rd, 2018 at 2:41 pm). Leicester home form reads W2 L1 so far.

So they haven’t been having problems in front of goal, but at the back, they have been. They have only earned the two clean sheets. Both teams to score is a top option for Leicester v Everton predictions and that is at 7/10 odds* (betting odds taken on October 3rd, 2018 at 2:41 pm). Jamie Vardy has netted in back to back games following his return from suspension and is the outright favourite in the First Goalscorer market for this game. The Foxes have actually not shipped a goal in the second half of a home game this season. This should be a good end to end stuff.

Everton News and Form

It hasn’t all come together often enough for Everton this season, especially in attack, but they did shake things off to put a good 3-0 home win over Fulham on the board last weekend. They needed that too as they were on a four-match winless streak of form. The Toffees have gone W2 D3 L2 overall this season so consistency has been an issue for them. Out on the road, they are still searching their first league success of the season, having picked up two points from their three road games so far. Those were from draws at Wolves and Bournemouth.

Both of those draws were 2-2 scorelines. The Toffees have yet to find their feet defensively and in the correct score market a Leicester 2-1 option does look great value at 9/1 odds* (betting odds taken on October 3rd, 2018 at 2:41 pm). The Merseysiders have conceded exactly two goals in each of their three away games this season so there is a small trend there. They have just the one clean sheet this season home and away in the top flight. Last season they had some big troubles on their travels and that looks as if it is spilling over to this term a bit as well.

Leicester v Everton Head to Head

It was a home win for each in the Premier League last season and four of the last five Premier League meetings between them have actually produced a home win. Fixtures between Everton and Leicester have produced plenty of goals and all but two of the last nine have made it above the 2.5 goals line. The Toffees have failed to win any of their last nine league trips to Leicester.
