Comments:

League position: 2nd After their final game of 2015, Leicester City were denied being on top of the Premier League by Arsenal on goal difference only, having started the year at the bottom of the table. The Foxes failed to score for the first time in their last 15 Premier League home games. They failed to score in consecutive Premier League games for the first time since March 2015.

Comments:

League position: 3rd Manchester City were now without a win in their last six away games in the Premier League; their worst such run since April 2011. City had now scored only one goal in their last five Premier League away games. They kept a clean sheet for the first time in their last ten games in all competitions.
