Frank Lampard has named his Everton starting eleven to take on Leicester City in the Premier League at Goodison Park on Saturday.

The big change for this one is that Lampard has decided to drop Anthony Gordon to the bench with Dwight McNeil coming in for him.

Gordon started the game against Fulham, but did not finish it and the Toffees boss has decided to make a big move and remove him from the eleven.

Must win

There are no excuses for the Toffees here and they have to do everything they can in order to get the three points.

Brendan Rodgers' Leicester are struggling and certainly there for the taking in this one.

They have been very erratic this season and should struggle if the Toffees fans are strong and loud and make things difficult for the visitors.

It's time for some of the Everton attackers to step up as this is the perfect match for them to find space in behind and also work at an under-performing goalkeeper.

Lampard surely will be looking for more from the likes of Dwight McNeil. and Dominic Calvert-Lewin, with the latter now seeming to be closer to full sharpness.

We're excited about this one and it's fair to say that watching the Toffees is the perfect way to end a Saturday evening and we're hoping that it's a game worth celebrating.
