Leicester – Burton Albion

Leicester’s home defeat to Burton Albion by 1‑2 left the Foxes still stuck in 13th place with eight points from six games, their goal‑difference slipping to minus two after a 9‑12 tally. Burton, meanwhile, moved up to 11th on the same eight points but with a neutral goal balance of ten each, thanks to the crucial three points. The result also settled the season’s head‑to‑head, giving Burton their sole victory over Leicester after the two clubs had split their previous encounters. Both sides now share identical records of two wins, two draws and two losses, but the win puts Burton a step ahead in the tightly‑packed middle of the table.
