Everton will face Leicester City in the Premier League clash on Sunday afternoon.

To be played on Sunday 9th April 2017 at 16:00. Venue: Goodison Park, Liverpool

Odds: Everton 8/11, Draw 27/10, Leicester 4/1

Everton’s slim of reaching the top four have gone out of the window after they failed to win their last two matches.

The Toffees are heading into this game on the back of a 1-1 draw with Manchester United in the midweek. They are three points behind Arsenal, have played two games more, and Ronald Koeman should be aiming for the fifth spot now.

Koeman’s side have been hit by a number of costly injuries, and Ashley Williams’ suspension only makes the matter worse.

The Dutchman also confirmed he will be without Ramiro Funes Mori, Yannick Bolasie, Muhamed Besic, James McCarthy, Seamus Coleman, and Aaron Lennon.

Morgan Schneiderlin, who missed Everton’s last two matches, has returned to training and Koeman expects him to be available for the Leicester clash. Tom Davies could be given a rest, and Lookman may get the nod ahead of Valencia.

Everton have a solid record at Goodison Park, having won their last six home matches in the Premier League. However, they are up against an in-form side who have won their last five Premier League games.

Leicester are a side re-born under Craig Shakespeare, although four of those victories have come at home.
