Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of the Premier League clash between Everton and Leicester City at Goodison Park. The reigning champions are bidding for a sixth straight Premier League victory under Craig Shakespeare that would move them up to 10th and see him equal a record start for consecutive wins set by Messrs Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti. Seventh-placed Everton's ambitions of forcing their way into the race for the top four all-but ended last week, but they have lost just once at Goodison under Ronald Koeman and will be hoping the Foxes have one eye on their Champions League quarter final, first leg against Atletico Madrid in midweek. Kick off 4pm BST.

90+3'
FT: Everton 4-2 Leicester City. Lukaku's double keeps Everton's dream of qualifying for Europe alive after an incredible start to the match saw the sides exchange the lead inside the opening 10 minutes. Shakespeare's perfect run as Foxes boss comes to an end as he turns his attention to Wednesday's CL clash with Atletico Madrid.
90+1'
The Foxes must shrug this one off and get set for Madrid now. If resting key players helps them on Wednesday the gamble may have long-term gain. At the moment, it's short-term pain.
90'
Three minutes added.
89'
Everton break. Lukaku with a stepover to take it out of his feet on the right of the box, but he slips at the key moment of pulling the trigger. Great ball by Mirallas to tee him up.
88'
SAVE! Ulloa denied once more as Joel makes an instinctive save. Jagielka with some heroic defending to hook the rebound clear with Musa lurking.
87'
The Foxes are eight points above the drop zone, but look certain to stay up. They will be trying to finish as high as possible now they have their mojo back - despite what seems like a loss here....
86'
Barkley shoots from long range but Schmeichel is right behind it.
85'
Leicester will stay 11th and Shakespeare's perfect record is abut to come to an end.
84'
As it stands, Everton will move level on points with Arsenal who are sixth - but the Toffees will have played three games more.
82'
Everton have all-but given up attacking now. They are just looking to see out the last 10 minutes or so.
81'
A goal for Leicester now would set up a fantastic finale....
80'
Mahrez drills in another set piece, but this time Everton deal with it and the danger is averted.
79'
Almost an instant impact. Ulloa rises to meet the right-wing corner, but sees it hit Gueye in the face and deflect to safety!
78'
FOXES CHANGE: Ulloa on, Albrighton on.
77'
75'
Leicester lacking the same threat they posed in the first period. In truth, if you take the first 10 minutes out of it, Everton have been superior for long spells.
74'
Everton have controlled this half and Barry is just the man to keep a cool head and keep possession ticking over.
73'
EVERTON CHANGE: Schneiderlin off, Barry on.
