- The City No.10 netted a brace in Sunday’s 3-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion
- Maddison highlighted the Toffees form and Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s effectiveness in front of goal

First up for City is a tricky encounter at King Power Stadium with Everton, who registered a 1-0 victory over Chelsea last weekend thanks to Gylfi Sigurðsson’s first-half penalty.

Then, four days later, the Foxes head to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to take on José Mourinho’s table-topping outfit, before welcoming Manchester United to Filbert Way on Boxing Day.

“[We've] now three really tough games to come," Maddison told LCFC TV after netting a brace in Sunday’s 3-0 win against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Enjoy all the goals from the Foxes' superb 3-0 victory over Brighton in the Premier League on Sunday night.

“They're all tough, I guess, in the Premier League. But Everton, Spurs, Manchester United [are] the next three.

“We'll be three games closer to the end of the season which gives you a better picture (of City’s league standing) but I think especially with the season [and] how it is this year, it's just taking every game as it comes.”

First up, though, City host the Toffees in a 6pm kick-off on Wednesday, and Maddison knows his side must be way of the Premier League’s current top scorer and England international colleague, Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

They've got a really good goalscorer in [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin and so we'll prepare for that no different to any other and take it game by game.

"It's three games, especially in quick succession now,” he added. “We've got another game [on] Wednesday, which we need to recover for.

“Everton, who have been in good form this season, they look good. They've got a really good goalscorer in [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin and so we'll prepare for that no different to any other and take it game by game.”
