Recap
Everton will look to continue their resurgence under David Moyes when they host struggling Leicester City at Goodison Park in a crucial Premier League clash.
The Toffees have won two consecutive matches, beating Tottenham and Brighton & Hove Albion, lifting them seven points clear of the relegation zone. With a game in hand and a promising home fixture against Leicester, they have the chance to extend their winning streak and build on recent momentum. Although Everton have struggled to score this season, they were clinical in their 3-2 victory over Tottenham at home.
Leicester, on the other hand, have struggled to find consistency this season. They managed a much-needed 2-1 victory over Tottenham last weekend, their first league win since early December. However, they remain near the bottom of the table and have been unable to string together a solid run of form.

Team News:
- Everton:
- Injuries: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (hamstring), Orel Mangala (season-ending injury), Armando Broja, Dwight McNeil, and Youssef Chermiti (all forwards) are all sidelined. Seamus Coleman and Tim Iroegbunam are also out, though Iroegbunam is nearing a return.
- Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; Lindstrom, Doucoure, Ndiaye; Beto.
- Leicester:
- Injuries: Wilfred Ndidi (close to returning), Mads Hermansen (injured, continuing as a substitute keeper), Ricardo Pereira (out until March), and Abdul Fatawu (season-ending injury). Woyo Coulibaly could get more minutes after his debut against Spurs.
- Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Stolarczyk; Justin, Faes, Vestergaard, Kristiansen; Winks, Soumare; Ayew, El Khannous, Reid; Vardy.
Prediction: With Everton’s recent form, home advantage, and Leicester’s inconsistent attack, the Toffees will be hoping to make it three wins in a row. Despite their injury struggles, Moyes has managed to reinvigorate his squad, and this could prove enough to edge out a narrow 1-0 win over a Leicester side that is struggling for goals.
Score Prediction: Everton 1-0 Leicester.
