Everton vs Leicester confirmed line-ups: Team news ahead of Premier League fixture tonight

AP

Everton welcome Leicester to Goodison Park in the Premier League tonight.

Frank Lampard’s side are aiming to make it back-to-back after Anthony Gordon’s deflected goal ensured the Toffees of an upset victory against Manchester United last weekend.

That result provided some much-needed momentum in Everton’s bid for survival, leaving them three points clear of the relegation zone with a game in hand.

Meanwhile, Leicester suffered a dramatic late defeat against Newcastle last time out as Bruno Guimaraes scored a 95th-minute winner and Brendan Rodgers’ side will already have one eye on their upcoming Europa Conference League semi-final against Roma.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of today’s match.

When is Everton vs Leicester?

The match will kick off at 7:45pm BST on Wednesday 20 April.

How can I watch it online and on TV?

Unfortunately this game will not be televised live on TV but highlights will be available shortly after the final whistle.

Line-ups

Everton XI: Pickford; Coleman, Mina, Godfrey, Mykolenko; Allan, Delph, Iwobi; Gordon, Richarlison, Gray.

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel; Pereira, Fofana, Evans, Castagne; Mendy, Barnes, Tielemans; Dewsbury-Hall, Maddison, Iheanacho.

Odds

Everton: 5/4

Draw: 12/5

Leicester: 21/10

Prediction

Leicester City and Everton could both end up scoring in what appears to be a good match-up, with little separating these two teams. Will be interesting to see how this one goes, with a good chance of a draw. We therefore think that it’s going to be a very close game. Everton 1-1 Leicester
