Comments:

League position: 8th Leicester City had now failed to score in two of their last 16 games in the Premier League. This was the Foxes' first goalless draw at the King Power Stadium since the visit of Southampton in the Premier League on 2 October 2016, which was longer than any team currently in the division. They were now without a win in their last five home games in the Premier League (drawn four).

Comments:

League position: 18th Southampton were now without a win in their last eight games in the Premier League. The Saints avoided equalling their club record of five consecutive defeats in the top division. They had now kept a clean sheet in their last four Premier League games played on a Thursday.
