Have us down for a 1-1 draw and 2-1 defeat respectively. Signs are positive then 😉
So we have two players missing on Saturday, Huth and Drinky, so who replaces them? I'd personally like to see Wasi because he's used to playing with Morgan and has played against Lukaku. I think it's risky trying out a new partnership against Lukaku in this form. Big ask for Benny to step in I reckon.
In the middle I'm not sure. I think I'd like to see Inler and basing it on his performance last week where it looked good. If he can continue that Drinky might find it difficult to get back into the team.
Whoever gets the nod knows they'vr got to take their chance.
Although Ranieri said he hoped Drinky would be fit as it isn't serious and I've not read anything about him being our. Maybe not wise to risk him anyway though.
Lawro & Merse

Leicester have scored in every game haven't they? We can't keep a clean sheet for Toffee, so....... has 0-0 written all over it
Nah, I think it'll be 2-2, we'll do our usual Everton bit, be winning and in complete control and then somehow manage to foook it right up by not making the correct subs at the right times and falling asleep on set pieces.

I'm not tense or defensive and I don't think you'll beat us 😊👍**
I've read alot of your posts and articles and you're getting very wound up about the so called 'big boys' not taking Leicester seriously and I know that you are praying that you can stay at the top of the table but know deep down that the run will probably come to an end soon - thats football
Good luck for the rest of the season after tomorrow, I will cheer you on against Liverpool

Yeah earlier in the season I got wound up but not recently and ive been pretty calm since we've been top of the league. I've not been all over the other boards rubbing it in, when really I could be giving it to the Spurs fans but nah, can't be arshed. I'd say ive been pretty relaxed to be honest.
I'm not praying for anything because I'm not concerned. I don't expect us to be top so this is just a bonus but it's enjoyable and will be fun for however long it lasts but I don't think anyone is under the illusion that we'll still be top in February. So no I'm not praying.,
If we can finish in the top four that will be an outstanding achievement and beyond my wildest dreams, top six would be amazing and there's a very realistic chance of that happening. I can't see us slipping outside the top six.
We're getting better and I'm not concerned about our form changing. This has been going on for 26 games now and we've arguably been through our rough patch.
We under-performed in our first seven games but we still managed to win and avoid defeat when not playing well. We've won 10 points from losing positions so we can still get points from games when things aren't going our way. Of course we'll lose again but we have a strong mentality and after getting smashed by Arsenal, we went and beat Norwich away. I'm not too concerned about a drop in form.

Perhaps it's just dawned on Lawro that we've only lost once all season? Hopefully this is the case and not that it means we're going to lose our second match because he's backing us to get a result ☺
I'd go for Wasi and Kingy. I think Inler with Kingy ready to come off the bench if Inler struggles would also be a reasonable shout. Benny against Lukaku? Don't really fancy that.
Only 5 points to go! 7 if you're being pessimistic 😁

A good opportunity to go 15 points clear of another average Everton.
Be happy with a draw though.
I'd have been happy with 5 points from our last 5 games this half of season. We've already got 6 out of 2, so it's all a bonus...

I wouldn't be surprised to see Lukalu deployed on the right of our from three tomorrow.
Running at the RB and makeshift CB pair.

Gr8. The last place we want to see Lukaku is in the middle of our box.

I've stopped betting on Everton as they always let me down. Leicester are a good price at 12/5.

Skybet has us as favs. Sure the Leicester fans will see it as an insult to them

Why would we ?

Everton would be top 4 this season of they had a decent manager. Martinez is woeful and should be doing much better with the likes of lukaku, stones, barclay and delafeou in his side. They would walk into most of the top european teams
Because martinez is a hopeless tactical flop though they will probably beat us today and lose the next 2
