Comments:

League position: 2nd Leicester City scored three or more goals for the second time in their last 17 games in the Premier League. The Foxes had now taken 19 of their 46 points so far in this Premier League season in home games (won six, lost five). Harvey Barnes had now scored 12 goals in all competitions so far this season; the most by an English midfielder currently with a Premier League team. Leicester City were awarded a penalty after 77 minutes but was reversed after a VAR review due to the foul taking place outside of the penalty area.

Comments:

League position: 4th Liverpool had now lost three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2014 when current Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers was their manager. The Reds had now failed to win six of their last 11 games in the Premier League when Mohamed Salah had scored (won five, lost three). They had won the preceding 35 games in the division when he had scored. Jürgen Klopp became the ninth manager to take charge of 300 games for Liverpool in all competitions (won 177, lost 53).
