Everton hosts Leicester City in round 20 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Wednesday, January 27th at Goodison Park (Liverpool)
Everton created a furor at the start of the season. Not Liverpool, but this particular club from Merseyside headed the standings for quite a perceptible time. Now the Toffee are two points behind the Champions League zone. On the first day of the new year, they lost three important points at Goodison Park, having suffered a defeat from West Ham (0:1). But on January 12, Carlo Ancelotti's charges gained their tenth victory in the tournament. A few days later, their match with Aston Villa was postponed to a later date. Now Everton has 32 points, takes sixth place, and may replenish its point baggage due to two games in reserve. Over the weekend, the Toffees hammered Sheffield Wednesday at home in the FA Cup (3-0).

Leicester suffered only five defeats, and the last one took place on December 16. Then the Foxes lost to Everton at home (0:2). In a month and a half, the former Premier League champion has added four wins to its stats (including 2-0 over Chelsea). Beyond that, there were two draws, including 2-2 with Manchester United. Currently, Brandon Rogers' team is in third place with 38 points scored. Last Sunday, the Foxes beat Brentford in the FA Cup (1:3).
In the first-round head-to-head confrontation, Everton was stronger than Leicester at the King Power Stadium. And there is a feeling that the Toffees did not become weaker after that victory over the Foxes. In our opinion, the hosts will not at least lose in the upcoming match.
Prediction for the match: Everton to win with +0.5 handicap
