Aston Villa have become the 20th and final team to claim points from a losing position in the Premier League this season.

Sushant Shetty: Did Leicester play with impostors against Manchester United? This team is light years apart from the one who dismantled them.

Jack Grant: Good win. Kasper Schmeichel take a bow.

Tom Sharpe: For all of Villa's woes, they are only three points off of eighth...

So what has that done to the Premier League table? Aston Villa are just one position away from the top 10, while Leicester remain rock bottom. Only four points between the Foxes and safety though.

"A very big win for Aston Villa. The home side have got some momentum now and the return of Christian Benteke has given them a huge boost. Leicester were as plucky as ever, especially when they went down to 10 men, but they were always going to be up against it and for me Villa were worthy winners.

"It's been combative but there has been a good spirit about it. There have been plenty of handshakes after strong challenges. The one question I would like to put to the referee, is what he made of all that between Paul Konchesky and Alan Hutton (see 80 mins)."

Back-to-back Premier League wins for Aston Villa as Leicester's winless run stretches to 10 matches.

Managers Paul Lambert and Nigel Pearson have a long chat post the final whistle. Probably a good idea for Pearson to stay away from the away fans this evening...

So close for Leicester as Chris Wood fires inches wide...

Deep into four minutes of injury time.

The free-kick is cleared and, after another cross comes in, Brad Guzan collects for Aston Villa.

Free-kick awarded to Leicester 40 yards from goal. Chance to load the box....

Kasper Schmeichel has the ball for Leicester and punts it long....

Gareth Whalley: It's a soft red card (see 80 mins) but the players got him sent off. Only captains should be allowed to talk to referee, import some rugby respect.

Paul Cate: Aston Villa even have defenders who score. Who said they had problems scoring eh?

Acrobatic effort from Leicester's Esteben Cambiasso but his over-head kick goes well wide.

"You want the home side to play with a little more composure now and to think about how you play against 10 men. Keep the ball and make them chase."

It looks like Leicester's winless run is about to stretch to 10 matches but can they nick an equaliser? Into the last five minutes.

At the other end, Aston Villa have chances to extend their lead as first Jack Grealish has a shot blocked before Gabriel Agbonlahor's effort is parried away by Kasper Schemiechel. He was offside anyway.

The red card appears to have brought Leicester to life. Matt James sees a shot deflected wide before a corner flashes dangerously across goal to safety.

"It was certainly a free-kick for the initial challenge by Paul Konchesky but I didn't think it was that bad. Alan Hutton was on the ground but he didn't half jump up quickly. It's a nightmare for Leicester, they had Wes Morgan sent off on Tuesday and now it has happened again. It was probably for Konchesky's reaction but even then Hutton was actually more aggressive."

Controversy here as Leicester's left back is given a straight red. Paul Konchesky fouls Alan Hutton on the left touchline before appearing to say something to the stricken defender. Both players then push their heads together and the Leicester man sees red. Hutton gets away with yellow.

"Kasper Schmeichel may have conceded two but he is having a great evening. That is a wonderful save. But maybe Christian Benteke should have headed across the goalkeeper. There's a great intensity about this game now. It means so much to both teams."

A final throw of the dice for Leicester as Marc Albrighton replaces Jeffrey Schlupp. The former Villa midfielder will be asked to get forward as much as he can.
