Rodrigo Bentancur’s close-range goal gave Spurs an early lead at the King Power Stadium as they sought to build on their victory over reigning champions Manchester City last weekend and pursue a fourth straight victory in all competitions.
However, the home team immediately turned the game around when Nampalys Mendy scored an equaliser in the 23rd minute and James Maddison’s second goal in as many games two minutes later.

With two more games played than Newcastle United in fourth, who are playing Bournemouth later on Saturday, Spurs are still in fifth place with 39 points from 23 games, one point shy of the Champions League spots.
