Leicester secure back-to-back wins with a 1-0 victory over Leeds, thanks to a second-half strike from Barnes, which came against the run of play.
The visitors dominated the early part of the second period and should have taken the lead.
But Schmeichel was excellent in goal for the Foxes and made several saves to prevent the opener.
Leeds were then made to rue their missed opportunities as Leicester took the lead on 67 minutes through Barnes, after a lovely one-two with Iheanacho on the edge of the box.

So, where else do Leicester and Leeds go from here?

Meanwhile, Leeds remains 16th but could drop further today if Burnley picks up all three points in their game.
