Jamie Vardy put the Foxes in front mid-way through the first half when Timothy Castagne latched onto a Youri Tielemans through ball before squaring for the striker to score.

Three minutes later it was 2-0, with Jonny Evans heading in to score against his former club from a Tielemans corner.

Nine minutes before half-time it was three. Vardy made a surging run into the box before teeing up Kelechi Iheanacho to finish from close range.

This result leaves Leicester third in the table and four points ahead of Chelsea, while the Baggies remain in the relegation zone, nine points from safety with six games to go.
