Fulham return to winning ways as Leicester struggles continues.
The London side scored twice in the second half to inflict further troubles on the Foxes
Fulham returned to winning ways in the Premier League as Marco Silva’s side sealed a 2-0 win at Leicester City.
Following a midweek loss at West Ham United, which ended an eight-game unbeaten run in the league, the visitors stayed composed here as second-half goals from Emile Smith Rowe and Adama Traore sealed victory.
The hosts had the better of the first half, but failed to press home their advantage and were punished after the break, with Smith Rowe heading home early on.
Fulham again showed their clinical edge as Traore volleyed home from close range in the 68th minute.
A seventh successive Premier League defeat keeps Leicester 19th in the table, two points from safety, as Fulham go ninth.
