Foxes ready for EPL coronation
Lee U-Wen
LEICESTER City have fond memories of their last visit to Manchester nearly three months ago. It was a blustery Saturday afternoon when the Foxes (Leicester's nickname) strode into the imposing Etihad Stadium and sauntered off two hours later with a resounding 3-1 victory over then-title favourites Manchester City.
After that impressive result which sent the modest East Midlands club six points clear at the top of the English Premier League (EPL), Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez - in an obvious bid to temper expectations - claimed that the bigger and more established teams had an "obligation" to win the title, but it was nothing more than a "dream" for Leicester.
This Sunday (9.05pm kickoff, Singapore time), that once improbable dream could finally become a reality for Mahrez and the rest of his team.
