Comments:

League position: 6th 1,501 goals had now been scored in Tottenham Hotspur’s 538 home games in the Premier League (for 922, against 579). Spurs had now won four consecutive games in the Premier League at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the first time. Former Foxes loanee Harry Kane had now scored 16 goals in 14 games in all competitions against Leicester City; the most he had now scored against any other team in his career.

Comments:

League position: 4th Leicester City were now without a win in their last eight away games in the Premier League (lost five); their longest such run since February 2017 (15 games). With one game still to play, the Foxes remained one short of equalling their Premier League club record for scoring the most goals in a season in the division. (68) City had now conceded an own goal in consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since February 2004 (at Middlesbrough and Newcastle United).
