Hugo De Lisle put our youngsters ahead inside just seven minutes in the capital, assisted by Joseph Corden, but the hosts hit back quickly through Quinn Schutter and completed the comeback on 28 minutes via Anand Batra's goal.
That’s how it stayed in the capital with the Cottagers claiming all three points and inflicting a first away defeat on the young Foxes since mid-November.
Leaving the side coached by Adam Barradell sixth in U18 Premier League South, next up, Aston Villa will arrive at LCFC Training Ground for an 11am GMT kick-off on Saturday 7 February.
