WHO'S GOING TO BE YOUR

MAN OF THE MATCH?

Villa end losing streak with draw at Leicester

Aston Villa put an end to their run of four straight defeats as they drew 0-0 with Leicester City at King Power Stadium.

Leon Bailey came close to scoring after eight minutes, but the Villa forward fired Ollie Watkins' cutback over. 

Leicester's best first-half chance came in stoppage time of the period, James Maddison curling a free-kick narrowly wide. 

The match continued in similar fashion after the break with few clear-cut chances, although Watkins did test Kasper Schmeichel after 55 minutes. 

Kiernan Deswbury-Hall, who looked lively throughout, fired wide from the edge of the area.

At the other end, Ashley Young's shot went straight at Schmeichel in second-half stoppage time as the match finished all-square. 

Leicester drop to 10th on 42 points, while Villa stay 15th on 37 points, nine clear of the bottom three.
