⚽ Premier League - Round 5 Preview

⏰ 15:00 GMT +1

🏟 King Power Stadium (Leicester)

Leicester City and Everton both find themselves winless heading into this Premier League clash, with Leicester experiencing a frustrating start to their top-flight return (D2, L2). Their recent 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace added to their misfortunes, including controversy over a disallowed goal. Steve Cooper’s side is eager for their first win of the season, but history suggests a challenge against Everton, as Leicester have managed just one win in their last seven league encounters with the Toffees (D3, L3). Their last home victory over Everton dates back to December 2019.

Everton, however, are enduring a torrid time, losing all four of their opening league games and suffering a Carabao Cup defeat to Southampton on penalties. The team’s struggles, compounded by off-field investor disputes, place manager Sean Dyche under increasing pressure. Everton’s defensive woes are glaring, as they’ve conceded 13 goals in four matches, a record that mirrors some of the worst starts in Premier League history. Evertonians are desperate for a turnaround, but their immediate future looks bleak unless significant improvements are made.
