In layout try like following:

@{
    string url = Request.RawUrl;
}
@switch (url)
{
    case "/home/":                
         @Html.ActionLink("Home", "../home/", null, new { @style = "background:#00bff3;" })
         @Html.ActionLink("Members", "../home/MembersList/")
    break;
    case "/home/MembersList/":
         @Html.ActionLink("Home", "../home/")
         @Html.ActionLink("Members", "../home/MembersList/", null, new { @style = "background:#00bff3;" })
    break;
    default:
            @Html.ActionLink("Home", "../home/")
            @Html.ActionLink("Members", "../home/MembersList/")
    break;
}
