Leicester vs Everton Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Kennedy Kechula in Premier League Predictions
In the lower reaches of the Premier League standings a big game is on the cards this Saturday 21st September. Newly promoted side Leicester City will be hosting struggling Everton. Going into the encounter, both teams are yet to win a league match this season and predictions indicate it will be a tough clash.
These teams have gone agonizingly close to winning in the league but have often been let down by late concessions. Hosts Leicester City have managed two points from their opening four matches and will be confident of finally bagging three points.
It helps that they are unbeaten in the last two meetings with Everton.
On the other hand, Everton come into the game battling both on and off-pitch issues. They are yet to earn a point this season, which has confined them to the bottom of the standings. At management level, talks of a takeover are dragging, and the uncertainty related with that is leaving a destabilizing effect at the club.

Leicester - Everton: Form Analysis
Leicester City aren’t having the dream return to the Premier League. Going into their fifth game, the Foxes have managed two points. Their match management skills have come under a lot of scrutiny as they’ve been seen to lose concentration at key moments.
A case in point has to be in their most recent outing. Playing away to Crystal Palace, Leicester seemed headed for a first league win of the season after taking a 2-0 lead.
However, they conceded a minute after going two up, then let in a second in stoppage time for the game to end 2-2. Steve Cooper’s side has only one win this season – in the League Cup.
That win was against a much weaker team, Tranmere Rovers at home. It also comes as their only win in the last four home matches.
Both Everton and Leicester are gunning for first league wins of the season.
Everton have been poor so far this season and like Leicester, their only win has come in the League Cup. That too, was against a weak, lower league side – Doncaster Rovers. The story of the Toffees in recent times has been that of collapse.
They took the lead in each of their last three matches across all competitions, but went on to win none. Sean Dyche’s side’s problems will not ease after their latest match, which ended in elimination from the League Cup.
They took the lead against Southampton, relinquished it to draw 1-1, and went on to lose on penalties. It was tougher in the earlier two league matches against Aston Villa and Bournemouth, where 2-0 leads ended in 3-2 losses.
Without a win in 13 straight away league matches, things are really complicated for the visitors.

Leicester & Everton Squad Analysis
Leicester City will feel favored by their recent schedule as well as players’ health ahead of this game. For starters, they did not have a midweek assignment and will be the fresher of these two teams.
Only two players will be absent for the Foxes – striker Patson Daka and Polish keeper Jakub Stolarczyk. Another forward in Odsonne Edouard remains a doubt but Jamie Vardy is a massive asset for this game.
The 37-year-old continues to hold a high profile at the team, and his two goals so far will build confidence coming here. Vardy also has a great record against Everton, with five goals in the last 10 matches.
Stephy Mavididi adds to a good support for Vardy while Wilfred Ndidi has also been impressive.
Everon are dealing with a longer list of absentees compared to Leicester City.
Apart from fatigue drawn from a midweek match that went all the way to penalties, Everton have serious fitness concerns. Before their Southampton game at least three players fell ill and had to be omitted.
Those three – Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Vitalii Mykolenko and James Garner – may return for this game alongside Idrissa Gueye who had personal issues.
Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford will also be back after staying on the bench for the League Cup match. However, Defenders James Tarkowski, Seamus Coleman and Jarrad Branthwaite could all miss through injury.
This doesn’t leave Sean Dyche with very many options available, especially in defence.

Our Leicester vs Everton Prediction
The core of Everton’s troubles this season hasn’t been in attack, but defence. In most of their recent matches Everton have actually been decent going forward. They scored at least two goals in three of their last four matches.
However, in the Premier League, they’ve conceded three or more in each of their four matches. They face Leicester, who have close to similar stats – conceding twice in each of the last three league matches.
Leicester managed at least a goal in each league game so far. Our prediction for the Leicester City v Everton game is to have over 2.5 goals.
