Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Leicester City FC gets underway.
- 5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 10' PAE AEK is showing some good football. However, PAE AEK are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 12' GOAL! Cengiz Under scores on 12.
- 14' What a strike from Harvey Barnes! The score is 2-0.
- 19' PAE AEK started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 19.
- 24' Nassim Hnid was booked on 24.
- 29' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Leicester City FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 34' Jonny Evans has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 48 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 39' It looks like no one’s ball. PAE AEK is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 44' Supporters expect more eagerness from Efstratios Svarnas, as he is very good at scoring at King Power Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 49' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Karim Ansarifard made 8 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 54' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
- 55' Another substitution for PAE AEK to replace Levi Garcia by Theodosios Machairas on 55 minute.
- 56' PAE AEK manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Evgen Shakhov is hanging Efstratios Svarnas on the field on 56 minute.
- 61' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Leicester City FC that had 354 games and scored 510 goals.

- 66' Nelson Oliveira is replacing Karim Ansarifard for the PAE AEK side.
- 67' Leicester City FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Ayoze Perez is hanging Kelechi Iheanacho on the field on 67 minute.
- 72' James Justin needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 19 Yellow cards this season.
- 77' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 81' Kostas Galanopoulos has so much to prove this time. He replaces Andre Simoes on 81 minute.
- 82' Time for substitution for Leicester City FC. Youri Tielemans is replaced by Hamza Choudhury.
