Comments:

League position: 8th Leicester City had now won three of their last ten home games in the Premier League (lost three). The Foxes avoided losing three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since February 2017. Kelechi Iheanacho's goal was the first that City had scored in the first-half of their last four games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 20th Huddersfield Town were now without a win in their last ten games in the Premier League (lost six). The Terriers had now scored six goals in their last 16 games in the Premier League, and only three in this season; the lowest total in the division. Mathias Jørgensen's opener after five minutes became Town's quickest goal in a Premier League game; previously Elias Kachunga at Watford on 16 December 2017 after six minutes.
