Comments:

League position: 3rd Leicester City had now conceded 15 goals in in their last eight games in the Premier League; as many as in their opening 17 league games in this season. The Foxes had now taken 49 points from their 25 games so far in this Premier League season; 17 more points than at the same stage of the previous season. Harvey Barnes had now scored in three consecutive league games for the first time after scoring two goals in his preceding 39 league appearances. Wilfred Ndidi was originally named in the starting line-up before failing a fitness test on a knee injury. Hamza Choudhury was promoted to the starting XI with Demarai Gray taking his place on the bench.

Comments:

League position: 4th Chelsea had now won one of their last five games in the Premier League, and four of their last 13 in the division. At 38 years and 125 days, Willy Caballero became the second-oldest player to appear in the Premier League for the Blues after Mark Schwarzer (41 years and 216 days at Cardiff City on 11 May 2014). Antonio Rüdiger became the first recognised defender to sore two or more goals for Chelsea in a game in the Premier League since John Terry at Fulham on 17 April 2013.
