Impact Evans picked up a calf issue throughout the week and has been unable to shake it off, so it'll cost him at least one game. Daniel Amartey is replacing him in the back.

Ruled out for Crystal Palace game Evans (calf) is unavailable for Saturday's match versus Crystal Palace.
Late test Saturday Evans is considered a late-fitness test for Saturday's match against Crystal Palace because of a "tight calf," according to manager Brendan Rodgers. "We'll have to assess Evans bef...
Impact This is a massive worry for Leicester, who have struggled all season to defend. Evans had gone a full 90 in every league match prior and his absence would possibly move Daniel Amartey or Caglar Soyuncu back into the starting XI. Evans has pushed through minor issues in the past, but it's probably not a good idea to push through a bad calf.

Seven clearances in loss Evans delivered seven clearances and managed a shot on target in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Bournemouth.
Impact Evans, the captain, had a solid game on Saturday and scored well in defensive statistics (clearances and tackles). He will likely continue to be effective in Leicester's next game against Crystal Palace. Palace's attack has been weak, they have only won one of their last five matches. From nine appearances (all starts) he has delivered one clean sheet.

Disastrous start to season Evans has started all seven of Leicester's Premier League matches heading into the September international break.
Impact Evans is getting consistent minutes, mostly alongside either Daniel Amartey or new arrival Wout Faes in central defense, but Leicester have conceded the most goals in the league (22) and are currently dead-last in the table.

Ends season as starter Evans started in Leicester's last five games in the season and finished with two goals and one assist in 22 appearances (20 starts).
Impact Evans missed part of the season with a hamstring injury that required surgery, but was able to recover and started in their last five games. Starting in 20 of his 22 appearances, the centerback scored twice from five shots and assisted once from six chances created between Premier League and Europa League. On defense, he finished with 27 tackles, 27 interceptions and 69 clearances to his name.

Gets minutes before break Evans (hamstring) played 26 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 2-1 win against Brentford.
Impact Evans is finally back on the pitch and it comes a couple weeks early despite the international break on deck. He'd been out since December because of a hamstring injury and it seems like his plantar fasciitis issue is gone. Along with Wesley Fofana being healthy again, Leicester's back line looks set for a nice close to the season.

Impact Evans has already missed 10 games due to his hamstring problem and is expected to remain sidelined versus Brentford on Sunday. Whenever the central defender is cleared to play, he should be in the mix for a regular spot in the starting XI where he figures to offer mid-range fantasy value at best.

Out after hamstring surgery Evans underwent surgery on his hamstring and will be out until April, confirmed managed Brendan Rodgers.
Impact It's another downer update for Leicester and especially Evans, who was recently back from his plantar fasciitis issues. Leicester's back line has some massive absences and there's a chance they bring someone else in this transfer window, especially given the update on Evans.

Sidelined three weeks Evans (hamstring) will be out for three weeks with a hamstring injury, according to Jamie Thorpe of talkSPORT.
Impact Evans will be sidelined for around three weeks as he recovers from a hamstring injury. The defender is a big miss for the already heavily injured Leicester defensive unit. Wilfred Ndidi may be pushed backed into a center-back role with so many defenders out.

Late test for Man City Evans (hamstring) is considered a late-fitness test for Sunday's match against Manchester City, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
Impact Evans usually plays through injuries, so there's a decent chance he's in the XI Boxing Day. The problem is that he plays through injuries and often re-injures himself mid-game because he returned too soon. While it wasn't a bad hamstring injury, it's a wonder if Leicester hold him one match to start him home against Liverpool a couple days later.

Impact Leicester have a bit of a crisis on their back line and it seems like Evans could push through his injury to start this weekend. That seems like a bad idea and for now, defensive midfielders like Wilfred Ndidi and Boubakary Soumare may be asked to feature at center-back Thursday with Caglar Soyuncu also out.

Comes off injured against Newcastle Evans was subbed out of Sunday's victory against Newcastle United in the sixth minute after suffering an injury.
Impact Evans was replaced by Boubakary Soumare on Sunday as center backs Jannik Vestergaard (illness), Wesley Fofana (leg), and Daniel Amartey (illness) are all out as well. Evans will hope his injury isn't serious enough to further shorten Leicester's options at the position.
