The Foxes had now won seven of their last ten games in all competitions (lost one). Kasper Schmeichel became the tenth player to make 400 appearances for City in all competitions.

Comments:

League position: 8th Southampton failed in their attempt to set a new club record of remaining unbeaten in seven consecutive away games in the top division. The Saints had now scored one goal in their last five games in the Premier League. They failed in their attempt to keep a clean sheet in four consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since February 2016.
