Despite their opponents controlling long periods as they chased a top-two place in the Championship, the Foxes demonstrated their ruthlessness to lead 2-0 at the break.

Stephy Mavididi opened his account for the campaign in style, teasing three defenders out of position before rifling past Viktor Johansson in the 23rd minute before Patson Daka ended his near yearlong goal drought just before the break.

Bae Jun-ho reduced the deficit two minutes after the interval but Leicester held on to win back-to-back matches, having failed to take maximum points from their previous five.
