Comments:

Final league position 2020-21: 5th Leicester City would have qualified for the following season's UEFA Champions League, if they had won this game. They spent 242 days in the top four in this Premier League season; more than any other team. The Foxes had now lost six of their last 13 games in this Premier League season after losing six in their opening 25 games of the season in the division. Since making his debut in the Premier League in August 2014, Jamie Vardy had now scored more penalties than any other player in the competition in the same period (26). Leicester City were awarded a penalty after 17 minutes following a VAR review.
