LEI vs EVE Fantasy Prediction: Leicester City vs Everton Best Fantasy Picks for Premier League 2020-21 Match

LEI vs EVE Fantasy Prediction: Edge of the seat thriller on our hands today as two clubs with a penchant for attack taking on each other.

Failing to keep a cleansheet since gameweek 1 and seeing their form go to the dogs, Everton knew they faced an extremely daunting challenge when they came across Chelsea the last time around. However, the side refused to be dazed by the proposition with Ancelotti out to get the better of a club he had previously served.

And he ended up prevailing as well on the day as Everton ran the show to comprehensively to dominate Chelsea and play them out of the park. Refusing to allow Chelsea any leeway on the day, Everton clobbered a Chelsea side in fluent touch to accrue a win which could end up being a defining moment for their season.

Elsewhere, Leicester City were equally impressive in their triumph against Brighton, one which saw them race into a 3-0 lead inside the first half itself. The performance saw them ease their way into third place at Chelsea’s expense, a position they had Everton to thank for.

Probable Winner

Now up against the same Everton side, Leicester City will be far from charitable today. This will be a closely run affair, one where we envisage Leicester City’s defence just about tilting the scales in their favour.

Daniel and Ricardo are both ruled out owing to their current injury issues.

Gbamin and Dinge will see their prevalent injuries rule out the Everton duo.

LEI vs EVE Fantasy Prediction

Goal-keeper

We begin our set of picks with the selection of Kasper Schmeichel from Leicester City. With a cleansheet the last time around, the goal-keeper showed why he’s become the side’s first pick in the slot for a slew of seasons now.

Defenders

He finds company in Jonny Evans and Wesley Fofana, two names who moved in tandem to manifest that shutdown for their side the last time around. Everton on the other hand will see us induct Yerry Mina in our side with the CB’s awareness and positioning seeing him take attacks.

Mid-fielders

James Maddison’s man of the match display against Brighton saw him amass the two goals and an assist, a ravishing performance which makes him the first pick from the side. Youri Tielemans who has the three goals will be his partner, two players who can capitalise on an Everton defence known to catapult.

Everton on the other hand will feature both their new signings. In midfielders Abdoulaye Doucoure and Allan, the side has managed to reign in two tenacious names, players whose guile and pluck has seen them disrupt attacking plays.

Strikers

Winning Everton’s penalty against Chelsea, striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin just can’t stop coming up with meaningful displays at the moment. Richarlison with the three assists forms the one-two of picks from the club, two players who are conjuring up goals at ease for the club.

Leicester City’s top scorer, 10 goal man Jamie Vardy will complete our team for today.

Captain and vice-captain

Jamie’s’ goal the last time around see him be our captain while Dominic is the vice-captain.

Fantasy team

Kasper, Jonny, Fofana, Mina, Allan, Doucoure, James, Youri, Jamie, Richarlison, Dominic.
