Aleksandar Mitrovic boosted Fulham’s European charge as the Cottagers downed Leicester City with a narrow win.

The striker fired Marco Silva’s side to a third-straight win after a 1-0 Premier League victory at the King Power Stadium. It left Fulham seventh in the Premier League on 28 points - the same amount they were relegated with in 2021 - and level with Liverpool.

The Cottagers are in dreamland, in contrast to the Foxes with boss Brendan Rodgers’ consistent reality checks still ringing true after a third-straight defeat.

Rodgers has always been insistent this season would be one of struggle and his side have reverted to their early form which saw his own position called into question. Youri Tielemans rattled the crossbar during an improved second half but it was Fulham’s fast start which ultimately sealed the points.

Tete is down holding his head following a mid-air collision with Barnes, but eventually gets to his feet and play can carry on.

WIDE!!! Tielemans beats Robinson down the right before curling a shot goalwards from 20 yards. Its a beauty of an effort which beats Leno, but curves just wide of the far post! That would have been some goal from the Foxes captain!
