Premier League: Leicester City's eight-match winning streak keeps them on the heels of table toppers Liverpool

Firstpost  

Leicester have rattled in 25 goals in their eight-match winning streak, conceding only three, and victory over Norwich would set them up for a Christmas double against Manchester City and Liverpool London: Widespread pre-season predictions of a two-horse Premier League title race look like being proved correct but the fact it is Leicester City, not Manchester City, vying with Liverpool has provided a novel twist to the plot. Should Leicester beat lowly Norwich City at home on Saturday and stretch their winning league run to nine games, they will move nine points clear of Pep Guardiola’s faltering champions. Leicester have rattled in 25 goals in their eight-match winning streak, conceding only three, and victory over second-from-bottom Norwich would set them up perfectly for a Christmas double against Manchester City and Liverpool. Manchester City’s hopes of a third successive title already look forlorn after last weekend’s derby defeat but midfielder Ilkay Gundogan said the champions must regain their focus.
