Leicester – Everton, Picks and Tips
The season remains a difficult one of transition for the Foxes, who are coming off a loss to Tottenham in London. Leicester didn't go out to defend, and that cost them, often being caught on the counter-attack. Brendan Rodgers chose to mention several key players last week in Premier League matches ahead of the Conference League return leg with AS Roma. Unfortunately for Leicester, however, their European run ended in the semi-final stage. In the Premier League standings, Leicester are in 11th place, but are only 2 points behind 9th place. In addition, Newcastle and Brighton the teams above them, have 2 games in hand. The record at the King Power Stadium is modest: 48 goals scored, 54 goals conceded. The battle on 2 fronts has been a very demanding one for Leicester's lot, and results have been quite modest lately.
The visiting side face a very tough end to the season in which they could be relegated to the Championship. The season couldn't be worse for Everton and their fans. In addition to the team's run, rivals Liverpool are in the race to win all the trophies up for grabs. Head here for our analysis and tips on the Liverpool v Tottenham duel. The Toffees are 18th in the English Premier League standings with 32 points collected in 33 rounds. 17th-placed Burnley have 2 points more, but also a game more played. In the last league round, Everton achieved a huge success at home to Chelsea. Lampard's boys were dominated in all respects, but managed to defend the lead they had gained after Richarlison's goal (46'). Everton seem to be on the mend of late, with only one defeat in recent weeks
