In-form Leicester host struggling Everton

Leicester City will take on Everton in an English Premier League match at the King Power Stadium on Sunday.

The Foxes secured a 2-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion away in their previous league encounter on November 23.

The win extended Leicester’s unbeaten run to five matches in the league having registered five consecutive victories.

They are also undefeated in their last eight league matches at home having recorded six wins and two draws.

Leicester will be looking to maintain their impressive winning run when they lock horns with Everton.

Meanwhile, Everton were beaten 2-0 by Norwich City at home in their previous game on November 23.

Before that defeat, the Toffees were undefeated in two league matches having recorded a draw and a victory.

They ended their eight-match winless run on the road in the league when they defeated Southampton in their last away game.

Marco Silva, the Everton manager, says his charges will have to react strongly against Leicester after their defeat to Norwich.

“We have to react strongly after today. For sure, we can. It will be a really tough week for us with three games in six days,” Silva said.

“We have to react strongly and with confidence and get the points away we lost at home this afternoon.”

The last meeting between Leicester and Everton in a league game was on the 1st of January 2019.

Leicester secured a 1-0 victory over Everton at the Goodison Park.
