Leicester City vs Brentford
The full-time whistle blows to a chorus of loud boos at the King Power Stadium as Brentford thrash Leicester City to inflict more misery on Ruud van Nistelrooy’s Foxes who have set a new Premier League record of failing to score in their last six home matches. The Foxes started the game with intensity, but their defensive problems were on show once again as Yoana Wissa bundled home after a beautiful flick by Mikkel Damsgaard. Thomas Frank’s Bees went from strength to strength following the opener and later made it two with Bryan Mbeumo’s finish before Christian Norgaard headed home a third. The home side tried to rally in the second half but Fabio Carvalho’s late finish put the icing on the cake for the west Londoners. The visitors' domination was reflected through an xG of 1.64, while the home side struggled in front of goal as highlighted with an xG of 0.55. Thanks for reading!
