Comments:

League position: 15th This was Swansea City's 100th victory in the top division. The Swans had now won four of their six games in the Premier League in 2017 after only winning three of their previous 19 league games in 2016-17. Goalkeeper Łukasz Fabiański made his 100th appearance for City in all competitions in this game (99 in the Premier League). Swansea City manager Paul Clement said: "The goal before half-time put us in strong position, we were solid all of the game. We had a couple of moments around 60/61 minutes where Leicester threatened but otherwise we were good."

Comments:

League position: 17th Leicester City had lost their last five Premier League games and not scored a goal in the Premier League in 2017. Having now gone over ten hours (610 minutes) without scoring in the Premier League, the Foxes became the first reigning top division champions to fail to score in six consecutive league games. City had now kept only two clean sheets in their last 18 Premier League games. Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri said: "Unbelievable. We started well. We wanted to make a good result against another team near the relegation zone. We make something good but the first shot on goal they score and then the second again."
