Leon Bailey netted a decisive late strike to earn Aston Villa a 2-1 deserving victory against Leicester City, creating a bad record of a fifth consecutive loss for the Foxes in the Premier League.

The Jamaican international brilliantly converted a low cross in the 78th minute from teammate Ian Maatsen, making it his first goal in the Premier League this season.

Aston Villa earlier took the lead after scoring the first goal in the 58th minute with a stunning edge-of-the-box shot coming from Ross Barkley, making it his third league goal in the season.

Leicester City equalized after a goal from Stephy Mavididi after capitalizing on a rebound through Jamie Vardy saved by the opposition’s goalkeeper, Emiliano Martinez. While Bailey’s next opportunity hit the bar, Aston Villa held on for the victory.

Unai Emery’s side suffered a disappointing setback after the team’s skipper, John McGinn, was replaced due to a hamstring injury. Before McGinn went off the pitch, a VAR check ruled out Villa’s opportunity for a penalty despite visible contact on Boubacar Kamara in the box. 

The win for Aston Villa pushed the team to the eighth place on the Premier League’s table with four points below the team in the top four, while Leicester City has not been able to leave the relegation side as they sit in the 19th place.
