Leicester City U23s 2 Chelsea U23s 1
Watch extended highlights as the young Foxes took on Chelsea with a 2-1 victory at Holmes Park.
The Club’s Under-23s signed off in 2018 with a 2-1 victory over Chelsea in Premier League 2 at Holmes Park earlier this month – their third win on the bounce.
Leicester went ahead through Callum Wright and, while Charlie Brown levelled for the visitors before the interval, Tyrese Shade made sure of the three points in the second half.
That success was preceded by consecutive wins over Sparta Prague B and Brighton & Hove Albion – in the Premier League International Cup and Premier League 2 respectively.
Against Sparta, Josh Knight scored an 84th minute winner to help City climb up to third in Group B, with three points from two matches, but they trail Feyenoord, on the same points tally.
The Academy graduate struck again at the Amex Elite Football Performance Centre the following Monday to seal their second 1-0 win in a row.
Live coverage of every Under-23s fixture will be broadcast live and for free on LCFC TV for the remainder of the 2018/19 season.
On Monday, commentator Nick Walsh and former Foxes defender Sean St Ledger will be on hand from 6:45pm GMT to provide commentator and expert opinion.
