What channel is Everton v Leicester Premier League match on? Kick off time and latest team news- 27 January 2021
Check out the latest TV details as Everton take on Leicester in a Premier League clash live on BT Sport.
Everton host Leicester in one of the most enticing Premier League fixtures of the midweek round between two sides on the up.
The Toffees have played fewer games than any other team in the top flight – just 17, compared to up to 20 played by those around them – but sit seventh with just three points' gap to the top four.
Winning both of their games in hand on the top three would skyrocket Everton up to three points short of the summit, a remarkable feat, and with five wins from their last six games, there's every chance they could climb.
Leicester are one of the teams position above them and boast their own lofty ambitions.
A win for the Foxes would see them go level with Manchester City as the title race continues to boil.

Our prediction: Everton v Leicester
Two great teams, two great managers, two great runs of form. There's very little to separate the teams going into tonight.
Everton's defence is improving by the game, Jordan Pickford is proving his credentials as England's No.1 – not that his over-the-top critics will acknowledge his upturn in form, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin is back from injury.
Leicester are without Jamie Vardy and will surely miss his presence, but Harvey Barnes and James Maddison will be determined to pick up the slack. This could be a top encounter.
Our prediction: Everton 1-1 Leicester (11/2 at bet365)
