Team News: Leighton Baines makes Everton return against Leicester City

Leighton Baines makes his first Premier League appearance for three weeks as Everton host bottom-of-the-table Leicester City at Goodison Park.

Leighton Baines has been named in Everton's Premier League starting XI for the first time in three weeks for this afternoon's visit of bottom-of-the-table Leicester City.

The England international has recovered from a knee injury and is one of three changes made by Roberto Martinez from the side that won 4-1 at Young Boys in the Europa League on Thursday.

He takes Bryan Oviedo's place at leftl-back, while Muhamed Besic comes in for the suspended Gareth Barry and Aaron Lennon gets the nod over Kevin Mirallas down the right.

Leicester, meanwhile, make one change to the side that lost 2-1 at Aston Villa in the FA Cup fifth round last week.

It comes in their five-man defence as Robert Huth returns in place of Marcin Wasilewski.

Everton: Howard; Coleman, Stones, Jagielka, Baines; McCarthy, Besic; Lennon, Barkley, Naismith; Lukaku
Subs: Robles, Gibson, Kone, Mirallas, Atsu, Garbutt, Alcaraz

Leicester: Schwarzer; Simpson, Morgan, Huth, Upson, Konchesky; Mahrez, James, Cambiasso, Schlupp; Kramaric
Subs: Hamer, Drinkwater, Vardy, King, Ulloa, Wasilewski, Nugent
