On Sunday, 20th October at 3pm, Everton will travel to the King Power Stadium to play Leicester City in game week 5. Both teams are seeking their first win and 3 points of the season. Currently, both Everton and Leicester City have had poor starts to the season and are part of the 4 teams currently on 2 points from a maximum of 15, with only goal difference separating them. The closeness at the bottom of the table will make this game even more important at this point of the season.
This fixture follows a 0-0 draw away at Aston Villa last weekend for the Foxes, where a solid performance from Janina Leitzig left them with a point. This result means that they are sitting at 10th in the table coming into the weekend's fixture. Last Sunday Everton managed to get a point from West Ham at home thanks to an own goal, but they still remain at the bottom of the table.
There is no clear underdog in this game, but the outcome may be a decisive factor in the way their season may play out, meaning that it is a great opportunity for the players to prove themselves and the direction in which they want the season to go.
Adult tickets for the game will cost £10, while concessions are £6, and tickets for under 18s cost £4. Entry for under 8s will be free.
The game will be available to watch at 15:00 (BST) on the Women’s Super League YouTube channel.
