TEAM NEWSEverton manager Roberto Martinez has said John Stones is in "perfect condition" after shaking off knocks picked up against Norwich City last weekend.
The defender rolled his ankle in the warm-up at Carrow Road and also fell on a running track surrounding the pitch in the second half, yet still played the full 90 minutes.
Martinez has also not ruled out a return for James McCarthy, while Phil Jagielka and Steven Pienaar are progressing well.
For the Foxes, Claudio Ranieri will be without Robert Huth through suspension, while Danny Drinkwater and Jeff Schlupp are both out with hamstring injuries.
Ritchie De Laet has an ankle problem, while Matty James is their only long-term absentee with a knee injury.
FORMLeicester have been in scintillating form all season, with 10 league wins from 16 games.
The Foxes have lost only once – to Arsenal – but since then they have racked up seven wins and two draws.
Notable victories over Chelsea and West Ham have kept them on course, while they have also picked up draws against the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United.
England striker Jamie Vardy has been the catalyst for that form, with 15 goals so far this campaign. Riyad Mahrez, the Algerian winger, has also chipped in with an impressive tally of 12.
Everton, meanwhile, are looking to turn draws into wins, having had to share the spoils in four of their previous five league outings.
In the last 10 meetings between the Blues and the Foxes, there have been eight stalemates – although Everton did win the other two.
LAST MEETINGEverton 2-2 Leicester City, 22 February 2015
Everton and Leicester City traded blows back in February before ultimately settling for a point apiece.
The Blues went in front on 57 minutes as Romelu Lukaku held up Darron Gibson’s pass for Steven Naismith to cut in on his right and fire past Mark Schwarzer.
But City equalised through David Nugent – a boyhood Evertonian – to level up matters.
Leicester then went in front via Esteban Cambiasso’s tidy finish from Jamie Vardy’s cutback.
But the hosts rallied to earn a point as Matt Upson turned Christian Atsu’s cross into his own net.
CLASSIC MEETINGEverton 3-2 Leicester City, 20 December 2003
The Blues celebrated the 125th anniversary of their first ever match by coming from behind to beat the Foxes back in 2003.
Having deservedly taken the lead through a Steve Howey own goal, Leicester turned the game on its head courtesy of efforts from Les Ferdinand and Jamie Scowcroft.
But the Toffees battled back to claim victory with two goals in eight minutes. First Kevin Campbell teed up Wayne Rooney, then Duncan Ferguson nodded Kevin Kilbane’s cross into the path of Tomasz Radzinski to fire home the winner.
KEY MANN’Golo Kante
Much has been said and written about the scoring exploits of Jamie Vardy and the attacking threat of Riyad Mahrez, but Leicester’s forward players benefit hugely from the presence of N’Golo Kante.
Alongside Danny Drinkwater, the French-born midfielder holds the engine room together in Leicester’s 4-4-2 formation.
He also represents a shrewd bit of business for the Foxes, with the 24-year-old costing just £5.6million when he was snapped up from French top-flight side SM Caen.
In his 17 appearances so far, he has also chipped in with a goal after scoring against Watford, and has kept the vastly experienced Swiss international Gokhan Inler on the bench.
