Current streaks

Recent form

Everton

Everton have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with a current two-game winning streak in the Premier League lifting them to 16th position. The Toffees have displayed resilience, bouncing back from a three-match losing run in late December and early January. Their last six games have been closely contested affairs, with five out of six matches ending with under 2.5 goals. Notably, Everton have maintained a balanced goal difference, scoring and conceding six goals each across these fixtures. The team's defensive solidity is evident in their two clean sheets, while their most recent outing against Tottenham Hotspur proved to be a high-scoring encounter, with Everton emerging victorious in a five-goal thriller.

Leicester

Leicester City's recent form has been worrying, with the Foxes currently languishing in 17th position in the Premier League. The club have endured a difficult run of results, losing four of their last six matches across all competitions. Notably, Leicester have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 18 games, highlighting their defensive frailties. Despite their struggles, there have been glimpses of attacking prowess, particularly in their FA Cup tie against Queens Park Rangers, where they netted an impressive six goals. However, their league form remains a concern, with the team failing to score in three of their last four Premier League matches. Leicester's goal difference of -2 over the last six games suggests they are struggling to outscore opponents, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game while scoring 1.5. The Foxes will be hoping their recent victory against Tottenham Hotspur marks a turning point in their season as they battle to climb away from the relegation zone.

Recent home/away form

Everton

Everton's recent home form has been somewhat inconsistent, with three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six matches at Goodison Park. The Toffees have shown a strong defensive record, keeping three clean sheets and conceding only 0.83 goals per game during this period. Their most impressive performance came in a 4-0 thrashing of Wolves, which stands out as a high-scoring affair. Interestingly, Everton have been involved in low-scoring matches more often than not, with 67% of their recent home games seeing fewer than 2.5 goals. Despite their 16th position in the league, the Blues have managed to outscore their opponents by a margin of 9-5 over these six matches, suggesting they can be potent in front of their home crowd when on form.

Leicester

Leicester's away form has been abysmal, with their recent victory against Tottenham Hotspur breaking a dismal run of five consecutive defeats on the road. The Foxes have struggled defensively, conceding a staggering 17 goals in their last six away matches, averaging 2.83 goals conceded per game. Notably, they have failed to keep a single clean sheet during this period. Their 4-0 thrashing at Newcastle United and 4-1 defeats to both Brentford and Liverpool highlight their defensive frailties. Despite the high-scoring nature of their matches, with all six games seeing over 2.5 goals, Leicester have struggled to find the back of the net themselves, scoring just five times in these fixtures. This poor away form has contributed significantly to their precarious 17th position in the league, leaving them perilously close to the relegation zone.
