Bristol City have fallen to the bottom of the Championship table following a heavy defeat at the hands of Leicester City.

The Robins, who have now lost 16 league games this season, were beaten 4-0 courtesy of a first-half hat-trick from Chris Woods and a long-range strike by Matthew James.

Woods, who has now scored six goals for the Foxes since signing from Millwall earlier this month, broke the deadlock at Ashton Gate after just 11 minutes when he fired home from 18 yards following a neat cross by Ben Marshall.

Wood doubled his side's advantage seven minutes later, capitalising on a weak punch by Robins goalkeeper Dean Gerken before finishing well from close range.

He completed his hat-trick on 41 minutes with a precise effort from just outside the penalty area.

James wrapped up the scoring early in the second half when his low left-footed effort from 30 yards found the bottom-right corner.

Leicester have now won their last four matches by an aggregate score of 13-1.
