However, while they accumulated 39 points in the first 19 matches of the season, they have been brought crashing back down to earth by a return of just 23 from the subsequent 18.

The Foxes dropped out of the top four for the first time since September with a 3-0 loss at Tottenham last week, meaning they have now won just twice since the restart.
