Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti admits he will be without key players James Rodriguez and Seamus Coleman for their next game.

The Toffees take on Leicester City in the Premier League in midweek.

But they will have to do so without their captain Coleman and creative force Rodriguez.

It means Ancelotti has to shuffle his pack to pick the right team for such a crucial game.

"We prefer to leave him (Coleman) out for this game and be ready for the next game on Saturday," said Ancelotti to reporters.

"We are without James who started his individual rehab yesterday. We have to check him day-by-day.

"(His injury is) not a big problem. When he starts to train with the team, it means he will be able to play. We have to look at him for Saturday or for next Wednesday."
