Ndidi, Maddison give Leicester a crucial victory

The Foxes overhauled Manchester United for the time being after a two-goal lead at half-time was enough in the end. Wilfred Ndidi fired in off the inside of the post from 20 yards with just six minutes gone by. Maddison added the second in the 41st minute after sweeping a cool finish past Chelsea keeper Edouard Mendy on the half-volley from Marc Albrighton's pass.

Opta stats

Leicester City ended the day top of the Premier League table having played as many as 19 games of the season for the first time since the final day of their title-winning 2015-16 campaign. They have also won 30 of their 35 Premier League games when scoring first under manager Brendan Rodgers. This was Rodgers' first win against Chelsea (W1 D7 L4).
