Leicester City have given more of a chance to young players this season than any other Premier League club, a BBC Sport study has found.
Claude Puel may be the bookmakers' favourite to be the next top flight manager to lose his job but he has given 8,373 minutes to eight Foxes players aged 22 or under this season, nearly double that of the next highest - Arsenal, with 4,467 minutes.
In contrast to the youthful looking line-up at the King Power Stadium this season, Cardiff City prop up the table having failed to give a single minute to a player aged 22 and under so far.
