Comments:

League position: 20th Esteban Cambiasso’s goal ended Leicester City's run of five hours and 27 minutes without a home Premier League goal since Paul Konchesky's 45th minute winner against Aston Villa on 10 January. The Foxes had now won two of their last 11 Premier League home games (drawn three and lost six).

Comments:

League position: 9th Before this match, West Ham United were unbeaten in their last seven matches against Leicester City. The Hammers had now won none of their last eight Premier League away matches (drawn four and lost four) and won two of their last 14 league games (drawn five and lost seven). West Ham had now kept only one clean sheet in their Premier League away games in 2014-15, the equal-fewest in the division. Adrian saved David Nugent’s 15th minute penalty.
