PREMIER LEAGUE – Leicester offer Rodgers some reprieve

Brendan Rodgers can blow. A little. Leicester left last place in the standings after their draw against Crystal Palace (0-0). More active offensively than their hosts of the day, with five shots on target against one, the Foxes however did not have very clear chances to score. But they take advantage of Wolverhampton’s narrow victory in the Midlands derby against Nottingham Forest (1-0) to leave them 20th place on goal difference, the two teams having only five points on the clock after 10 matches played.

Although publicly supported by the club’s management, Rodgers and his players were whistled – without much conviction – by their supporters at the end of the match, a banner even calling on the management to act quickly. The Wolves come out of the red zone (17th) but Southampton, which follows them by two lengths, must still receive West Ham on Sunday (3 p.m.).

In the other match of the afternoon, Fulham and Bournemouth were neutralized (2-2). A draw that does no one’s business, since the two clubs are respectively 10th and 9th while the Cherries, who led twice in the score, could have returned to equal points with Manchester United, fifth, if successful. At the end of the afternoon, Tottenham (3rd) will receive Everton. If they win, the Spurs will come back up to Manchester City with 23 points, before the trip of the defending champions to Liverpool on Sunday (5:30 p.m.).
