League position: 20th This was West Bromwich Albion's biggest home defeat since a 4-1 loss to Queens Park Rangers in the Premier League on 4 April 2015. The Baggies had now dropped 21 points from winning positions so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. Albion had now lost six Premier League games in a row. They last lost seven consecutive games on 12 April 2003 when they were subsequently relegated.

League position: 8th Jamie Vardy's opening goal was Leicester City's 3,000th goal in the top division. This was the Foxes' second 4-1 away win so far in this Premier League season (also at Southampton on 13 December 2017). Jamie Vardy had now scored on each of his four visits to The Hawthorns in the Premier League.
