Comments:

Final league position 2018-19: 9th Leicester City had now won four of their last six home games in the Premier League; one more than in their previous 12 games at the King Power Stadium in the division. The Foxes had now won three of their final games of a Premier League season (played 13, lost six). Brendan Rodgers remained without a win in the 12 games he had faced Chelsea in his managerial career (lost six).

Comments:

Final league position 2018-19: 3rd Chelsea avoided completing a run of nine consecutive away games in the Premier League without a clean sheet for the first time since February 2001. This was the 13th time in the last 16 seasons that they had finished in the top three of the Premier League. The Blues avoided losing their final game in consecutive seasons in the top division for the first time since 1993. This was Chelsea's fourth goalless draw in this Premier League season; their most since 2013-14 (also four). At 37 years and 225 days, Willy Caballero became the Blues' second oldest player in the Premier League after Mark Schwarzer against Cardiff City on 11 May 2014 (41 years and 216 days).
