By

Everton are winless in their last six Premier League matches (D3 L3), after winning four of the five prior to that (D1). The draw is 3.20.
The Foxes have kept clean sheets in all three of their Premier League games in 2018 so far - there have only been eight previous occasions of a club keeping a clean sheet in their first four games of a calendar year in the competition, most recently by Manchester City in 2013. Leicester are 2.90 to keep a clean sheet.
