Comments:

League position: 3rd Leicester City had now have lost one of their last nine home games in the Premier League (won six). The Foxes had now taken 28 points since Brendan Rodgers became their manager on 27 February 2019 (won eight, lost four); only Liverpool (43) and Manchester City (37) had now taken more points in the same period. James Maddison ended a run of 31 shots in the Premier League without a goal since scoring against Huddersfield Town on 6 April 2019. [Opta]. Wilfred Ndidi 'scored' after 16 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

League position: 5th Tottenham Hotspur were now without a win in their last nine away games in the Premier League (lost seven); their worst such run since December 2006 (ten games). They had now gone longer without an away league win than any of the other current Premier League teams. Spurs had now failed to win three consecutive away games in the Premier League when they were leading at half-time for the first time since March 2008. Since the start of the previous season, Harry Kane had scored 13 goals in away games in the Premier League; more than any other player in this period. Serge Aurier 'scored' after 64 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.
