Leicester City battled back from behind twice to beat Aston Villa...

Brendan Rodgers’ team were only outside of the bottom three on goal difference ahead of Saturday’s game but the Midlands derby ended 4-2 in their favour.

Emery’s men started the brighter of the two sides and duly took the lead with just nine minutes on the clock. Emiliano Martinez rolled a goal-kick into Boubacar Kamara, who had the ball stolen off him by Iheanacho, his pass then coolly converted by Maddison on his first league start since the World Cup.

Villa’s second would come about in unfortunate circumstances for Foxes new-boy Souttar, who inadvertently deflected a low Watkins cross into his own goal. Emery responded by making a double change for the second half as Alex Moreno and Philippe Coutinho were introduced.
