Brendan Rodgers blamed naivety for the extraordinary way Leicester allowed victory to turn into defeat against Tottenham on Wednesday, but his team are becoming old hands at shooting themselves in the foot. There is mitigation: they have been hampered by injuries all season and are still without a raft of key players. But they still need to wise up quickly if they are to retain hope of reaching Europe. Brighton have similar ambitions and are in much better form – all they need to do is sharpen their finishing and they could add to Leicester’s woes. Paul Doyle
