The new Premier League champions return to home soil for their coronation as Everton pay a visit. The Foxes are unbeaten in 10 match-ups but might lack a psychological edge following their title triumph, while the Toffees snapped a seven-match winless streak with a victory over Bournemouth last Gameweek.

Leicester’s attack has excelled across their previous four outings, recording nine goals and two more big chances (12) than any other team. Furthermore, only two clubs (Manchester City and Southampton) boast a superior shot-conversion rate (13.1%) in home clashes than the Foxes. Although Claudio Ranieri’s squad have conceded just three goals in four fixtures, the fact they’ve allowed the sixth-most shots inside the box (35) offers some hope to the visitors.

The Toffees are in desperate need of an attacking spark, given that they placed joint-fourth-bottom for goals (three), bottom for attempts (31), bottom for shots inside the box (14) and joint-second-bottom for big chances (two) across their previous quartet of encounters. It’s worth noting, however, that Everton chart joint-third for big chances (39) and joint-fourth-bottom for goals conceded in road ties (19), illuminating their decent away form.

    I'm sorry but the bench boost simply isn't a very good chip. Obviously it has high points potential, it would be great if one gameweek was wiped out through snowfall and I'm sure some players did well out of it this year but nailing all 15 picks is not particularly likely.

      I hope to god they scrap the chips next season. they are awful.

        Just give us three triple captains.

      We're always looking to Min/Max it here. Maybe success is getting a that big haul from a player you would have benched in a 50/50 call, not having 15 scoring players which is unlikely yes.

      I got 41 points from it

      For a good bench boost all you need are players that are nailed on to start - the mistake people made is using it in a DGW, selling decent players and buying players they would not normally buy for the bench that were not nailed for 2 games

    4. Bøwstring The Carp
      • 14 Years

      I reckon it's one of those fake arms like in Father Ted and underneath his jersey he controls some speed-boosting device to help him power down the pitch
