Leicester City v Everton: match preview

Leicester City v Everton
Leicester City v Everton: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Two of the three Premier League clubs to have sacked their manager this season go head-to-head in the east Midlands as Claude Puel takes charge of Leicester for the first time and David Unsworth seeks the victory that would strengthen his chances of a landing the Everton job permanently. Puel seems likely to keep faith with the Leicester team that ended a six-game winless run with victory at Swansea, which means Shinji Okazaki will play just off Jamie Vardy. Idrissa Gueye is back from suspension for Everton. Stuart James
