Leicester vs Everton Betting Tips and Predictions: Leicester

Most expected Branden Rodgers to be a success at Leicester, however not many among us thought he’d be this good at Leicester. They look like a rejuvenated team that have found their stride again and are just as good as they were in their title winning 2015/16 season.

The Foxes are one of the highest scoring teams at home this campaign and are averaging 2.33 goals per game at the King Power, they’re conceding just 0.50 goals. It’s this steely defence that has helped Leicester climb up the table so quickly, of their last five matches at home they’ve scored 14 goals at home and conceded just three.

In team news Matthew James has returned to training with Leicester and could make the bench here, other than that, Leicester have a fully fit squad.

Everton are having yet another typically frustrating season, when they’re good, they’re good but when they’re bad they are atrocious.

Everton are averaging 0.83 goals per match on the road and conceding 1.67. Over their five most recent away matches, they’ve scored five and conceded 10. Everton have a few long-term injuries but Fabian Delph could make it back for this match.
