Leicester City have also failed to meet expectations so far this season and are in 10th place in the league table at the moment. The Foxes thrashed Watford by a 4-1 margin in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Everton vs Leicester City Prediction

Leicester City have a heavily depleted squad going into this game but did well to defeat Watford in the FA Cup. With Vardy, Daka, and Iheanacho unavailable, the likes of Maddison and Lookman will need to step up this weekend.
