League position: 8th Leicester City had now lost two of their last three home games in the Premier League against newly-promoted teams (won one). The Foxes had now failed to score in three of their last five games in the Premier League. City had now taken 28 points from their 20 games so far in this Premier League season; one more point than at the same stage of the previous season.

Comments:

League position: 16th This was Cardiff City's first away win in the Premier League since 12 April 2014 at Southampton. The Bluebirds had now scored 11 of their last 13 goals in the Premier League in the second-half of games. This was their third clean sheet in away games so far in this Premier League season; as many as in their only previous season in the division (2013-14). Neil Etheridge saved James Maddison's 74th minute penalty. He had now saved three of the five penalties he had faced in the Premier League.
