Leicester City's Premier League campaign hurtles on this Wednesday with a visit to Goodison Park to tackle Everton (7:45pm kick-off).

A five-game unbeaten run came to an end on Sunday at Newcastle United, while the Toffees go into the clash on the back of a 1-0 victory over Manchester United on 9 April. In that time, City have secured victories over Crystal Palace and PSV Eindhoven, before Sunday's trip to St. James' Park.

Ahead of the clash with Everton on Merseyside, here's everything you need to know...

What happened last time against the Toffees?

Youri Tielemans found the net for City on their last visit to Goodison Park.

Due to fixture postponements, Leicester have not played against Everton in over 14 months. Their last visit to Goodison Park, on 27 January, 2021, ended in a 1-1 draw as Youri Tielemans equalised a 30th-minute opener from James Rodríguez on Merseyside.
