Brentford had further opportunities to increase their lead most notably through Mikkel Damsgaard but Thomas Frank’s side finally had a fourth when Fabio Carvalho slotted in his second of the season to seal a fourth successive win on the road, which moves them into the top half of the table.
The Bees scored three times in 15 first-half minutes and went on to net four against the Foxes for a second time this season, following the 4-1 home victory in November.
The Bees sought to add to Leicester’s misery and Damsgaard got on the end of Mbeumo’s ball but was denied by a magnificent save by Hermansen.
It was 2-0 10 minutes later when Damsgaard burst through the middle of the park and teed up Mbeumo, who whipped the ball beyond Mads Hermansen from range.
Kevin Schade combined with Damsgaard and the latter chipped through to Wissa, who was able to touch the ball home off the woodwork.
