EPL: Video - EVE vs LEI - Foxes search for first win since football restart
 |
Leicester City will resume their search for a first win since the Premier League restarted when they take on Everton at Goodison Park on Wednesday night.
The Foxes still sit third in the table but have seen their Champions League spot come under threat, while hosts Everton still have an outside chance of European qualification next season too.
Matters are still very much in the hands of Brendan Rodgers's side - they still sit third in the table, surpassing all pre-season expectations to remain well on course for a return to the Champions League in 2020-21.
Draws against relegation-threatened pair Watford and Brighton & Hove Albion have both been disappointing, with the latter seeing them need a Kasper Schmeichel penalty save to avoid defeat.
It was also the fourth time in their last six league games that they have failed to score, and they drew another blank in the FA Cup on Sunday as Ross Barkley's goal fired Chelsea into the semi-finals.

Everton have not exactly been free-scoring of late either, finding the back of the net just once in their last three league games, but they did at least return to winning ways against Norwich City last time out.
Many may have been expecting a more comfortable win than their 1-0 triumph at the Premier League's basement side, but Carlo Ancelotti will not have been complaining at a timely three points to end a four-game winless streak.
