Comments:

League position: 8th Diogo Jota became the first player to score a hat-trick in the top Division for Wolverhampton Wanderers since John Richards in League Division One on 1 October 1977, also against Leicester City at Molineux. It was their first hat-trick in a league game since Sylvan Ebanks-Blake against Norwich City in the League Championship on 3 February 2009. Wolves had now scored the winning goal in the 90th minute or after in three of their games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. They had now conceded three or more goals in consecutive league games for the first time since December 2015 in the League Championship. Conor Coady became the ninth player to score an own goal in consecutive games in the Premier League and the first since Everton’s Leighton Baines in October 2012. Ryan Bennett's goal was the first scored by an Englishman for Wolves in the Premier League since Matt Jarvis at Wigan Athletic on 12 May 2012.

Comments:

League position: 9th Leicester City had now scored a total of 601 goals in the Premier League (played 483, conceded 699). Diogo Jota became the first player to score a hat-trick against the Foxes since Manchester City's Sergio Agüero in the Premier League on 10 February 2018. City had now lost four of their last five games in all competitions. This was the 100th game in the Premier League when a team had scored three goals and lost.
