Comments:

League position: 3rd Leicester City had now won one of their last six games in the Premier League, and three of the last 11. The Foxes had now failed to score in consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since May 2019. Kasper Schmeichel had now saved four penalties in games in the Premier League; one more than his father Peter Schmeichel made in the division.

Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester City had now won 29 and drawn one of the 30 games in the Premier League when Gabriel Jesus had scored. City were awarded a penalty after 62 minutes following a VAR review. Sergio Agüero's spot-kick was saved so they had now failed to convert their last four penalties in the Premier League. They had now kept clean sheets in consecutive games for the second time in this Premier League season (also in October 2019).
