This was Leicester City's first game following the helicopter crash at the King Power Stadium shortly after the Premier League game against West Ham United that caused the death of Foxes' owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, two members of his staff (Nusara Suknamai and Kaveporn Punpare), the pilot (Eric Swaffer) and co-pilot (Izabela Roza Lechowicz).
Leicester City had now won two of the last seven meetings in all competitions (lost two).
This was the first meeting in the top division meeting since 1962. The Foxes had now won the last four meetings in the top division (scored 11, conceded none).

Comments:
League position: 18th Cardiff City had now failed to score in six games so far in this Premier League season (played 11); a joint high in the division with Huddersfield Town and Southampton. The Bluebirds failed in their attempt to win consecutive home games in the top division for the first time since April 1962. City had now conceded 30 goals in their last 12 home games in the Premier League and kept only one clean sheet.1 Leicester City
