Leicester City have one foot and four toes in the Premier League and just need another seven points to seal the deal. City are VERY strong after the break, collecting 83 points at an average of over 2.18 per game. They are 24-11-3 in the second half, 11-8-0 on the road and overall have taken 16 points from 13 matches in which they have trailed.
We discussed the hosts ahead of their first home league game of the season .... After a narrow 2-1 loss at newly promoted Bournemouth on the opening day, where they were not helped by the dismissal of midfielder Bradley Pritchard (42-3-12 last season), the Addicks got off the mark with a 4-0 demolition of Oxford United here in midweek. The board had earlier released the purse strings to allow boss Chris Powell to sign two strikers, Simon Church of Reading and Marvin Sordell on a loan deal from Bolton Wanderers, this was a real staement of intent IMO.
