Comments:

Final league position 2021-22: 8th Leicester City finished in the top-half of the top division for a new club record fifth consecutive season: previously four from 1926 to 1930 in League Division One and from 1996 to 2000 in the Premier League. The Foxes ended a Premier League season with a win for the first time since 2014-15. City had now kept a clean sheet in eight of their last 50 games in all competitions.

Comments:
