Gary Neville has told Monday Night Football, which was broadcast on Sky Sports, that he thinks Leicester City have a better chance than Everton of qualifying for the Champions League this season.
Everton and Leicester both are right in the thick of the top four battle in the Premier League as things stand.
But Neville believes it is the Foxes who could well make it into Europe’s top competition.
“Just going back to the question before I think Leicester have the best chance out of the two, I don’t think Everton will break into the Champions League,” he said.
Leicester are currently ahead of Everton in the standings, but it should be noted that the Toffees do have a game in hand.
Leicester actually have a chance to extend their advantage over Everton later this evening, as they take on Chelsea.
If Brendan Rodgers’ side are able to win then they will move to the top of the pile in the Premier League, although they will have played more games than most their rivals.
Everton, meanwhile, are next in league action when they take on Leicester in just over a week’s time, in what looks a massive game for both sides.
