Comments:

League position: 15th Leicester City had now won six of their last seven games and now kept clean sheets in four of their last five matches (all Premier League). The Foxes became the first Premier League team to win on six consecutive Saturdays since Liverpool in December 2006.

Comments:

League position: 7th Southampton were now without a win in four Premier League games. Before this game, the Saints were unbeaten in the last six Premier League meetings with the Foxes (three wins and three draws). Southampton had now only earned one point from their last six away Premier League games.
