Redan, celebrating his 17th birthday, struck with a clinical finish on 53 minutes for his third goal in as many matches.

Foxes striker Josh Gordon hit the post, before Marcin Bulka tipped Hamza Choudhury's audacious effort from the halfway line on to the crossbar.

Chelsea are seventh on 20 points, while Leicester, beaten for the first time in 11 matches, are second, three points behind Liverpool on 33 points, having played two matches more.
