Leicester City will be hoping to climb out of the relegation zone when they travel to Merseyside to take on Everton on Saturday.

Brendan Rodgers’ side finally found some form in October after a dreadful start to the campaign, winning three of their six Premier League matches.

However, they suffered a 1-0 loss to Manchester City last weekend and remain in the drop zone in 18th, one point adrift of safety. 

A win here would draw them level with Everton, despite the Toffees being as high as 12th in the standings. 

Frank Lampard’s side bounced back from a three-match losing run to beat Crystal Palace and draw with Fulham in their last two outings. 

A win would push them into the top half, but defeat could see them quickly dragged towards the wrong end of the table.

Everton got the better of Leicester last season, holding the Foxes to a 1-1 draw at home before beating them 2-1 at the King Power in May.

Team news

Dwight McNeil comes into the Everton line-up as manager Frank Lampard makes one change for the game against Leicester.

The summer signing from Burnley replaces Anthony Gordon, who is on the bench.

Ben Goffrey, Yerry Mina and Andros Townsend all miss out through injury.

Leicester also have three players sidelined, as Jonny Evans, Ricardo Pereira and Ryan Bertrand all miss out.

Manager Brendan Rodgers makes two changes to his side as Boubakary Soumare and Patson Daka replace Caglar Soyuncu and Jamie Vardy for the Foxes.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, and FourFourTwo currently recommends:

ExpressVPN
