Richarlison on the wing as Maddison benched for Leicester

Richarlison (£7.0m) has been deployed on the left-wing for Everton as they host Leicester City in the opening Premier League fixture of 2019.

That has allowed Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.3m) to come back into the side to operate as the centre-forward, Bernard (£5.9m) dropping to the bench.

Also named among the substitutes is Seamus Coleman (£5.2m), as Jonjoe Kenny (£4.2m) returns for his first start since Everton’s last meeting with Leicester on October 6.

After being benched for the Gameweek 20 trip to Brighton, Gylfi Sigurdsson (£7.3m) comes back in to skipper the Toffees, who line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Brazilian international Richarlison may enjoy his outing at Goodison Park today as he goes up against Danny Simpson (£4.2m), who has been deployed at right-back for the first time since Gameweek 15 today. The former title-winner is making just his third league start of the campaign.

Meanwhile, James Maddison (£6.8m) finds himself on the Leicester bench, while Hamza Choudhury (£4.3m) makes his third start in four matches. The 21-year-old was excellent in recent wins over Chelsea and Manchester City but was rested for the Gameweek 20 defeat to Cardiff.

Wes Morgan (£4.5m) fails to recover from illness which sees Jonny Evans (£4.8m) come in, while Rachid Ghezzal (£5.1m) gets back into the Leicester starting line-up since Gameweek 12.

Everton XI: Pickford; Digne, Zouma, Keane, Kenny; Gomes, Gueye; Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Walcott; Calvert-Lewin.

Leicester XI: Schmeichel; Chilwell, Maguire, Evans, Simpson; Ndidi, Mendy, Choudhury; Ghezzal, Vardy, R Pereira.

        Getting 20 mins versus Liverpool when the game is already lost tells you a lot about what Emery thinks of Lacazette. Still doesn't give Lacazette a go up top on his own either.

        Emery would never bench Aubameyang, but he is happy to bench Lacazette.

    Very poor tactics from Silva. Playing 4 at the back with untrustworthy defenders is not the way to go. Even more so when it dilutes your attacking threat from the full backs.

      Problem is he creates a lot of chances but Everton don't have a striker that can convert them. Also his xG after his two goals a few GWs ago was 0.07 or something, so pretty inevitable he would stop scoring.

      He probably won’t score again. But he could be assist king if they can get someone to start putting the chances away
