Leicester have won just one of their last seven Premier League meetings with Everton (D3 L3), a 2-0 away win in November 2022.
16 of the 34 Premier League meetings between Leicester and Everton have been drawn, the highest percentage for any fixture to have been played 30+ times in the competition (47%).
For only a fourth time, Leicester City have failed to win any of their first four Premier League games in a season (D2 L2) – in all three previous seasons in which they’ve won none of their first four, they were relegated, in 1994-95, 2003-04 and 2022-23.
Everton have lost their opening four league matches in a season for just the third time in their history, also doing so in 1926-27 (first five) and 1958-59 (first six). They’re only the third Premier League side to lose their first four and concede 13+ goals, along with Swindon Town in 1993-94 and Southampton in 2012-13 (both conceded 14).
Leicester City have won their last five home Premier League games against sides starting the day bottom of the table by an aggregate score of 17-1. The last side in 20th to avoid defeat at the King Power was Sean Dyche’s Burnley in a 2-2 draw in October 2014.
Everton failed to win any of their first five Premier League games in both 2022-23 (D3 L2) and 2023-24 (D1 L4). In Premier League history, the only team to fail to win any of their opening five games in three consecutive seasons is Sunderland, who did so in four in a row between 2013-14 and 2016-17.
Everton have been 2-0 up in each of their last two Premier League matches but gone on to lose both 3-2 against Bournemouth and Aston Villa, becoming just the second team in Premier League history to lose consecutive games from 2+ goals ahead, after the Cherries in November 2022. No team has ever failed to win in three games in a row when leading by two or more goals.
Wilfried Ndidi has assisted three goals in his last two Premier League appearances for Leicester, as many as he had in his previous 62 games combined in the top-flight. He is only the second Foxes player to assist three goals in their opening four Premier League games in a season, along with Marc Albrighton in their title-winning campaign of 2015-16.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored in 14 Premier League defeats for Everton, including in his last two games against Bournemouth and Aston Villa. That’s the most games scored in and lost for the Toffees in the competition, one ahead of Duncan Ferguson who lost 13 times when scoring for Everton.
Leicester’s Jamie Vardy has been involved in 12 goals in his last eight Premier League starts against teams starting the day bottom of the table (9 goals, 3 assists) and has netted seven goals in 14 appearances against Everton.
