Draw at Plymouth and Preston, lose at home to Southampton and win the rest is my guess which would give us 102 points. If we get 100+ points and don't get automatics, we may as well call it a day and take our ball home 🤣

 

we could have got 110 points, but Enzo had to go home for his tea..

Boring and steady wins the race. 

 

The others have more pressure as they try to catch us.

 

Just need to tick of the games with  simple steady wins. No need for fancy football now

I think a lot of the players just need a break. Thinking KDH and Winks in particular. 

We just need to try to attack more and be more adventurous. We are playing in the Championship not the Premier League. Throw ultra caution and risk minimisation to the wind and watch us grow in confidence.

This style is ironically called high risk high reward too. It's not been showing either recently. 

[Lcfc-1992]

Hopefully come back after the international break and go on a run like we have done previously. 5 winnable games before 2 tougher ones.

[RearsbyFox]

Need to get back to winning at home. It's been our fantastic first half of the season and a great away record which has kept us too. Norwich Soton and West Brom will make me start chewing my fingers because my fingernails will be long gone. 

[Les-TA-Jon]

If we do something like W5 D3 L1, we'd finish on 100 points

 

If Leeds, Ipswich and Southampton win all their games and draw the fixtures when we all play each other that'd have a final standing of:

 

Leeds 104

Ipswich 103

Leicester 100

Southampton 97

 

Then factor in the chances of all 3 of them getting 'maximum' points...

OPTA SUPERCOMPUTER UPDATE 

 

Leicester's percentages 

1st - 64.8%

2nd - 26.8 %

3rd - 7%

4th - 1.4%

 

91.6% of going up - that's down 8% with this run of form.

I just feel the break has come at the right time.

From opta 

 

Leeds United gained ground on league-leaders Leicester City this weekend after the Foxes could only draw at Hull City on Saturday.

It could have been worse for Enzo Maresca’s side, with Leicester twice going behind before Jamie Vardy fired home an equaliser on both occasions.

 

Leicester are still odds-on for automatic promotion from the Championship at 91.6%, but they can have Cardiff City to thank for their chances staying as high – the Welsh club defeating Ipswich Town 2-1 with two goals in added time during Saturday’s early kick off.

A run of four points won in five Championship games has seen Leicester’s chance of winning the title fall to 64.8%, however. The gap at the top is now just three points with nine games remaining.

 

Heading into their final game of 2023, Leicester were being given a 91.3% chance of winning the Championship title. Since the turn of the year, however, they have won 20 points from 12 games – the seventh most in the league over that period.

 

Conversely, Leeds’ form has been exceptional in 2024. They’ve won 34 of a possible 36 points (W11 D1), 10 points more than any other team in the competition in that time.

 

 

After this weekend, Leeds are projected to finish inside the top two 75.6% of the time – that chance was just 21.6% on 29 December. Back then, they only had a 1.5% chance of winning the Championship title, but that has now risen to 28.6%.

 

Ipswich’s defeat on Saturday in Cardiff has seen their automatic promotion chances drop to 25.5% after being up at 49.4% before the weekend.

 

It looks set to be the play-offs only for Southampton, despite their weekend win over Sunderland and game in hand on their promotion rivals. Across the 10,000 current simulations by the Opta supercomputer, they finish between third and sixth 92.7% of the time.

As it stands, their most likely opponents in the play-offs will be Ipswich, West Brom and Coventry City.

Leicester City that

 

Win 6 games of the 9 and I think we'll be promoted. Maybe 5 and a couple of draws.

[whoareyaaa]

If Ricardo and Nididi are fit then we will do it, Winks and KDH need help.

 

Vardy to keep scoring as well.

 

[Royston.]

Think we're on a downward spiral and a lot hinges on Ndidi making a miraculous return to form after being out for so long.

 

We blew our comfortable lead like a fat kid spending all his money in the sweet shop.

 

Still enough games for twists and turns just hope we have the b0llocks mentally and physically.

As Southampton play all the other three it will be impossible for them all to win all their games

[dr.o.ball]

Blew the lead maybe but what an exciting last 9 games. Night and day compared to this time last year when even survival wouldn't have changed a shit shit season.
