Leicester v City

City are a bit biz away from home. Lost 4 games and haven't won since 12th Sept. Leicester or draw at worst for me.

I expect Leicester to lose tonight and have a tough run from now until around February.
-------------------------
That was said at the start of the month.... They had to play UTD, Everton, Liverpool and City. They will end the year a maximum of 1 point off the top.

Other than Spurs away, January looks easier for them.

If Leicester win tonight we'll be 11 points behind them.

It's taken us our last 11 games to make 11 points.

With 19 games to go we'd really need to get close to maximum points to have a realistic shot at top 4.

How do you figure that when we're only five points behind the third-placed side in the division, who have racked up points at less than two per game?

City have no beef with Port Vale, what's your problem?

Because Spurs are a side who have the best defence in the league and a style of play which is set up to get results home and away.

Arsenal and City will obviously get top 4 so it's really Leicester that we have to feel we can catch.

I have a sneaking suspicion that if Kane can stay fit Spurs will challenge for the title.

Spurs have a tricky run in the New Year. It'll be interesting to see if they can maintain the momentum and, if so, kick on from there.

I cannot see any team romping away with it. I've seen nothing to persuade me that City or Arsenal will stop dropping points.

Although their defence is a bit leaky, Leicester, along with Spurs, probably look the most consistent teams in the PL. Either could win the league.

They play Stoke who are in great form and Bournemouth are on a decent run, too. Then February is Arsenal, Liverpool and City again.

Not saying they aren't capable they've proved they are, but that's a potentially season defining two months. If the come out of that about 5 points or less from the top then they're right in the title race.

Well.. There we have it... Leicester end the year on equal points with the league leaders... They are very much in the race for top 4 and even the league itself

I wonder if the media will say its a bore draw like they usually say when we play a 0-0 even if there is tons of chances and goalmouth action.
