Comments:

League position: 11th Rickie Lambert had now converted all seven penalties he had taken in the Premier League. His successful spot-kick in this game was the first goal that West Bromwich Albion had scored in either the first half-hour or final half-hour of a Premier League game in this season.

Comments:

League position: 3rd Jamie Vardy had now scored in eight consecutive Premier League games; a feat only previously achieved by Daniel Sturridge in 2014 and twice by Ruud Van Nistelrooy in 2002 and 2003. The Foxes had now gained the most points (ten) coming from behind in the Premier League in this season; the most in the division. After 11 games, they remained as the only team to score in all of their Premier League games in this season. Kasper Schmeichel was booked in the third minute of added time in the second half.
