A busy schedule of matches is set for the Championship on Monday, as the race for promotion to the Premier League steps up a gear. Leicester City will be looking to put a difficult period behind them by landing a second win in three matches against Norwich City.
The race for promotion from the Championship is always one of the most exciting narratives to follow across the final weeks of the season. Leicester City have been among the front runners for an instant return to the top-flight throughout the campaign, but they will need to maintain a positive run of form to avoid dropping into the playoffs.
The Foxes come into the Easter weekend sitting second in the standings, but they could kick off this home match against Norwich at the summit. Leicester have lost three of their last five matches, and they have landed maximum points on just one occasion over that period. The Foxes played out a 2-2 draw in their latest match in the Championship, with Jamie Vardy netting twice in the tie against Hull City.
Norwich will also be looking to pick up vital points across a busy weekend in the Championship, as they are looking to secure a spot in the playoffs. The Canaries have won three of their last four matches, which has seen them rise into the top six at the expense of Hull City. However, their advantage is only three points, meaning that it could be wiped out across this weekend.
Norwich were excellent in their latest match in the second tier, as they landed a fine 3-0 away victory against Stoke City. Josh Sargent and Gabriel Sara scored goals in the opening half, before Ashley Barnes added a third with half an hour remaining.
Leicester have landed victories in each of their last three matches against the Canaries, which includes a 2-0 success in the reverse clash this term. The Canaries have won just once in their last eight matches with the Foxes across all competitions, with their latest away win against Leicester coming back in March 2011.
Leicester will desperately need to pick up back-to-back wins across the weekend to ensure that they don’t drop into the playoff spots. However, this could be a testing fixture against the in-form Canaries, meaning that the preference is for the points to be shared.
