Comments:

League position: 12th This was Leicester City's 300th home game in the Premier League (won 121, lost 96). Harvey Barnes became the 23rd player to make 100 appearances for the Foxes in the Premier League. City had now kept clean sheets in consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since February 2021.

Comments:

League position: 16th Following the sacking of Marcelo Bielsa, Jesse Marsch became the third American-born manager to take charge of a team in the Premier League after Bob Bradley at Swansea City and David Wagner at Huddersfield Town. Leeds United had now lost five consecutive league games for the first time since April 2015 in the League Championship. The Whites avoided becoming the first team to concede three or more goals in six consecutive games in the top division since Birmingham City in December 1964.
