Leicester City vs Fulham LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Leicester 0-1 Fulham: Aleksandar Mitrovic scores again as in-form Cottagers notch huge win
Aleksandar Mitrovic boosted Fulham’s European charge as the Cottagers downed Leicester City with a narrow win.
The striker fired Marco Silva’s side to a third-straight win after a 1-0 Premier League victory at the King Power Stadium. It left Fulham seventh in the Premier League on 28 points - the same amount they were relegated with in 2021 - and level with Liverpool.
The Cottagers are in dreamland, in contrast to the Foxes with boss Brendan Rodgers’ consistent reality checks still ringing true after a third-straight defeat.
Rodgers has always been insistent this season would be one of struggle and his side have reverted to their early form which saw his own position called into question. Youri Tielemans rattled the crossbar during an improved second half but it was Fulham’s fast start which ultimately sealed the points.

Wilson and Reed do well to evade the attention of Ndidi and the former finds Tete. He crosses low into the six-yard box, but it's cut out and cleared by Ream.
