Hodgson evaluates record-breaking Leicester win

Roy Hodgson offered his opinion of Leicester City's record-breaking victory over Southampton before Crystal Palace take on the Foxes this weekend, describing it is a "really good Friday night’s entertainment."

But Hodgson also stressed that the scoreline between Leicester and Southampton - in which the former overcame by the latter 9-0, an away Premier League record - will not affect Sunday's game at Selhurst Park. He explained that Palace have been preparing in the same way they would have had Leicester not won so convincingly last Friday.

He said: "I think we’d have been preparing for a very good team and a very good team performance irrespective of the Southampton game.
