    That's a booking. Not for Mitrovic, though...

    Leicester 1-1 Fulham

    It's all gone very quiet around the King Power Stadium.

    Aleksandar Mitrovic is being given a talking to by the referee after bringing down James Maddison. The frontman must be close to being cautioned, surely?

    GOAL - Leicester 1-1 Fulhampublished at 51 mins

    Floyd Ayite

    Where on earth did that come from?!

    Floyd Ayite dispossesses Ben Chilwell on the right-hand side and bursts into the penalty area.

    His low shot takes a deflection off Harry Maguire and trickles past the despairing dive of Kasper Schmeichel.

    That's Ayite's first Premier League goal. From Fulham's first shot of the match.

    Leicester 1-0 Fulham

    The Foxes have started the second half the way they ended the first.

    Jamie Vardy, looking for his 100th goal for the club, heads over the crossbar from Youri Tielemans' cross.

    The Belgian has been exceptional this afternoon, hasn't he?

    Jonny Evans seems to have shaken off that earlier injury, by the way.

    The defender is brought down by Aleksandar Mitrovic and Leicester have a free-kick.

    HT: Leicester 1-0 Fulham

    Fulham have failed to score in more than half of their league games this season: 15 of 29.

    They have yet to register an attempt this afternoon.

    Brendan Rodgers has already seen the class Youri Tielemans can add. He looks like a player right up his street.

    The Belgian has produced high quality passes and even showed a touch of composure when scoring a relatively simple goal. He's a player of real vision.

    Suspect Rodgers has already checked the terms of his loan arrangement.

    So far this is all very routine for Rodgers' new side, although they will want to make their superiority pay with a second.

    Leicester 1-0 Fulham

    Brendan Rodgers must be a very happy man.

    His side thoroughly deserve their half-time lead. Fulham have been second best by some distance.

    James Maddison floats his cross towards Jonny Evans, who just fails to get a touch to the ball.

    That will be the last action of the first half.

    Scott Parker will be seething if Leicester score from this.

    Aleksandar Mitrovic clumsily barges into the back of Wilfred Ndidi on the corner of the penalty area and the Foxes have a free-kick in a dangerous position...

    Jonny Evans appears to be carrying an injury. He just winced after playing a simple five-yard ball across to Harry Maguire.

    Doesn't look good for the Northern Irishman.

    Five minutes of normal time remaining in the first half - and Leicester want another goal before the break.

    Ben Chilwell surges past Ryan Sessegnon on the left but his low cross is blocked by Denis Odoi.

    A carbon copy of Tielemans' effort a few moments ago lands in Sergio Rico's arms.

    Leicester are being given so much space in the middle of the park, but they haven't yet managed to add to their one-goal lead.

    As things stand, it's surely only a matter of time before they do.

    Demarai Gray twists and turns on the edge of the area before teeing up Youri Tielemans.

    "Shooot!" cry the Leicester fans in unison.

    The Belgian does indeed pull the trigger but it's straight at Sergio Rico, who gathers the ball at the second attempt.

    Leicester 1-0 Fulham

    Aleksandar Mitrovic goes down - somewhat theatrically - under Jonny Evans' challenge but the referee awards the visitors a free-kick.

    Fulham move the ball well and Ryan Babel tries to feed Mitrovic inside the area, but the Serbian fails to control his team-mate's pass and Leicester breathe again.

    Lovely football from Leicester.

    Harvey Barnes' flick is collected by Youri Tielemans, who tees up James Maddison on the edge of the box.

    It's a better effort than his last one a few moments ago but still not enough to trouble Sergio Rico, who watches the shot curl past his right-hand post.

    Leicester 1-0 Fulham

    James Maddison tries his luck from distance but drags his low left-footed effort wide of Sergio Rico's post.

    Maddison is convinced the shot took a deflection off a Fulham defender but referee David Coote is having none of it.
