Posted March 21, 20169 yr At this stage, the Foxes can afford a draw and one loss should spurs win all their remaining games, which isn't looking likely given their run in. Can they hold out and keep gathering the points? I fear Mahrez getting injured and it all going to pot. What a story it would be. Leicester v Southampton - Sun 3 Apr - 13:30 Sunderland v Leicester - Sun 10 Apr - 13:30 Leicester v West Ham - Sun 17 Apr - 13:30 Leicester v Swansea - Sun 24 Apr - 16:15 Man Utd v Leicester - Sun 1 May - 13:30 Leicester v Everton - Sat 7 May - 15:00 Chelsea v Leicester - Sun 15 May - 15:00 Liverpool v Tottenham - Sat 2 Apr - 17:30 Tottenham v Man Utd - Sun 10 Apr - 16:00 Stoke v Tottenham - Mon 18 Apr - 20:00 Tottenham v West Brom - Mon 25 Apr - 20:00 Chelsea v Tottenham - Mon 2 May - 20:00 Tottenham v Southampton - Sat 7 May - 15:00 Newcastle v Tottenham - Sun 15 May - 15:00 Arsenal v Watford - Sat 2 Apr - 15:00 West Ham v Arsenal - Sat 9 Apr - 12:45 Arsenal v Crystal Palace - Sun 17 Apr - 16:00 Arsenal v West Brom - Thu 21 Apr - 19:45 Sunderland v Arsenal - Sun 24 Apr - 14:05 Arsenal v Norwich - Sat 30 Apr - 17:30 Man City v Arsenal - Sat 7 May - 15:00 Arsenal v Aston Villa - Sun 15 May - 15:00 Edited March 21, 20169 yr by Zola
March 21, 20169 yr I want nothing more this season now than us beating Tottenham to prevent them from winning the league.
March 21, 20169 yr looks like arsenal have the easier run in, all of leicesters remaining games look tricky
March 21, 20169 yr 'Easier Run In' - beware the teams scrapping against relegation. These run ins never go to plan, I can see a few twists yet with 7 games left to play.
March 21, 20169 yr I hope Arsenal f**ks it up. Dont mind Tottenham or Leicester.ABAOLAnybody but Arsenal or Liverpool. We played a huge part 2 seasons ago to stop Liverpool win the league, now we need to do our bit to stop Arsenal.
March 21, 20169 yr ABAOL Anybody but Arsenal or Liverpool. We played a huge part 2 seasons ago to stop Liverpool win the league, now we need to do our bit to stop Arsenal. by losing to leicester on the last day?
March 21, 20169 yr Tottenham winning the league would be the worst thing imaginable, beat them and lose to The Foxes. Perfect. I can't believe teams aren't going easy on Leicester yet, surely everyone wants them to win it at this stage.
March 21, 20169 yr i really do not think its in players mentality to go easy on a team in this respect, where or how would they draw the line of not making it obvious
March 21, 20169 yr I agree to an extent but there are games that players are obviously more up for, add to that the impact of the crowd.
March 21, 20169 yr We shouldn't roll over for any team. We should do what's best for us and also treat the competition with respect. If Spurs win the title it's because they've been the best team over 38 games, and the same goes for Arsenal as awful as that may be.

If Spurs win the title it's because they've been the best team over 38 games, and the same goes for Arsenal as awful as that may be. We won't. As fans we might want that to happen to screw Spurs and Arsenal, but the players...nah. They are pros, and I don't think they'd want to be responsible for cheating a fellow pro out of something as huge as a league title. Imagine JT, Ivan, Mikel etc having to look Cech in the eye if it was Arsenal we robbed.
March 21, 20169 yr We won't. As fans we might want that to happen to screw Spurs and Arsenal, but the players...nah.

Imagine JT, Ivan, Mikel etc having to look Cech in the eye if it was Arsenal we robbed. Â A lot will depend on whether we'll have anything to still play for.
March 21, 20169 yr A lot will depend on whether we'll have anything to still play for. it will be pride, nothing more
March 21, 20169 yr I think there should be a rule in place if there's two or more teams going for the title in April that all their games kick off at the same time, by the time Leicester next play(sunday April 3rd) Spurs(April 2nd) could be only 2 points behind them, Spurs also have two monday night games which means they'll know Leicester's result before kicking off, i know teams should be able to handle pressure but i think it'd be fairer if all title challengers kicked off at the same time. Â I suppose tv rules & wouldnt allow it though.
March 21, 20169 yr Arsenal's run-in does look the easiest. Our run-in is a bast@rd and I can't see us winning all of those games. There are some draws/losses there. I hope Leicester can hold on. There's no reason to suppose they'll have some bad games but probability would suggest they'll lose or draw some matches (Southampton, West Ham, Utd and CFC will be tough games for them). Please not Arsenal. There are six potential/likely wins for them if they turn up. Thanks Zola for the informative post :-) Edited March 21, 20169 yr by Spudulike
March 21, 20169 yr Thing is, Ranieri has always been a nearly man. Is anyone actually convinced he can do it? History tells us otherwise.
March 22, 20169 yr Thing is, Ranieri has always been a nearly man. Is anyone actually convinced he can do it? History tells us otherwise. No, not because it's Ranieri, but because it's Leicester.
March 22, 20169 yr I really want Leicester City to win the title. How good would it be if they won it before they come to The Bridge.
March 22, 20169 yr i still fear they are going to trip up, we all know as fans what the pressure of the last few games is like and a loss for them now will be far more damaging to their confidence that what it would of been say a month ago
March 22, 20169 yr Author They have also had a damning stat in their midst. "No one has blown the league from this position"
March 22, 20169 yr Don't think I am starting a new conspiracy theory but who knows.  Is it a coincidence that Messi has been advertising a certain regional UK crisp company this season   Â
March 22, 20169 yr Leicester's next 4 games are very winnable from a team in their position. Hold their bottle in the next 4 and I reckon it's a done deal. No way will Spurs win all their games or Arsenal hold their nerve.
March 22, 20169 yr I wonder how Leicester fans must be feeling about their position now? Are they just happy to be up there and consider it a bonus if they win the league or are they totally all out for the kill now and banking on a title win.  I really want them to do it but I just have this horrible feeling that they are going to blow it. I have visions of Ranieri and Monaco 2004.
