Comments:

League position: 14th Burnley avoided losing five consecutive games in the top division for the first time since January 1976 in League Division One. The Clarets had now failed to score a goal in the first-half goal of their last 11 games in the Premier League; the longest such run by any team in the division since their sequence of 12 games from February to May in 2015. This was manager Sean Dyche’s 300th league game in charge of Burnley who avoided losing five consecutive league games for the first time under him.

Comments:

League position: 3rd Leicester City had now lost four of their last six games in the Premier League; as many as in their preceding 22 games in the division. Goalscorer Harvey Barnes was born in Burnley in 1997. His father Paul, who was born in Leicester, made 75 appearances for Burnley from September 1996 to January 1998. Jonny Evans made his 300th career league appearance in this game. Jamie Vardy's 68th minute penalty was saved.
