Everton will take on Leeds on Monday, 26 January, in a match that will have ramifications in the race for Europe and the battle to beat the drop.
The hosts are very much in the mix to qualify for European football next season, but they will need a more consistent second half of the season if they are to break into the top seven come May.
Leeds, meanwhile, have been dragged back into the relegation battle after back-to-back West Ham victories, so picking up something here feels important.
