Final league position 2014-15: 14th This was Leicester City's first Premier League win over the Queens Park Rangers in four attempts. City had now won seven out of the last nine Premier League games. This was the second time that the Foxes had scored five goals in a home match this season; the other was against Manchester United on 21 September 2014. They had now scored 400 Premier League goals. Jamie Vardy celebrated his call up to the England national team earlier in the week by scoring the opening goal of this game. There had now been 101 goals in Premier League matches involving Leicester City in 2014-15; 46 for and 55 against.

Final league position 2014-15: 20th Charlie Austin celebrated his call up to the England national team earlier in the week by scoring a consolation goal. This was the club’s 24th defeat in the league season, a Premier League club record. The only season they had lost more top-flight matches was 1968-69 when beaten 28 times in League Division One. By conceding the opening goal, they set a new Premier League record of doing so 28 times during a 38 match campaign.
