What happened last time against Forest?

Championship champions-elect Leicester City were eight points clear at the top of the second-tier table following a typically eventful 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground in February 2014.

On 29 minutes, a defensive mix-up left home goalkeeper Karl Darlow stranded and allowed Jamie Vardy to put City ahead. A header from Jamie Paterson made it 1-1, before Andy Reid's penalty handed Forest a one-goal advantage.

After Paul Konchesky's red card for the visitors, Leicester won a spot-kick of their own, however, with Kevin Phillips seeing his effort saved. Undeterred, Leicester recycled the ball and Riyad Mahrez converted from close range with eight minutes to spare.

When can I catch match highlights?

Highlights will be available across the Club's digital channels - on LCFC.com and @LCFC social media - from 12pm the following day (Monday).

All times GMT.
