They had now conceded ten goals in the 90th minute or later so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. Dwight McNeil’s goal was the Clarets' 100th goal scored in home games in the Premier League (played 91, conceded 116).

Comments:

League position: 10th Leicester City had now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games in all competitions since a 1-0 win at Everton in the Premier League on New Year's Day. City had now been shown five red cards so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. Harry Maguire was sent-off after three minutes and 11 seconds. It was the quickest red card in the Premier League since West Bromwich Albion’s Gareth McAuley was dismissed against Manchester City on 21 March 2015 after one minute and 29 seconds.
