16'
Jamie Vardy scored twice to extend his impressive home scoring run against Watford as Leicester City won 4-2 at the King Power Stadium.
Leicester took the lead on 16 minutes when James Maddison capitalised on defensive hesitancy from William Troost-Ekong and arrowed a shot into the bottom corner.
Joshua King levelled for Watford from the penalty spot on the half-hour after Emmanuel Dennis had drawn a foul from Wilfred Ndidi.
But Vardy put the Foxes 2-1 ahead with a superb lofted finish from Maddison's pass, scoring against the Hornets for the fourth consecutive home match.
The Leicester striker then struck again three minutes before half-time with a brilliant header from Maddison's corner, while only a fine save by Daniel Bachmann denied him a first-half hat-trick moments later.
Dennis reduced the arrears for Watford on 61 minutes, making it 3-2, only for Ademola Lookman to restore Leicester's two-goal cushion with his first Premier League goal for the club from close range seven minutes later.
Victory takes Leicester up to 10th on 18 points while Watford remain 16th, five points behind.
