- 莱斯特在最近四场主场冠军赛中攻入14球
- 狐狸队在过去十场联赛中在国王力量队保持了七场零封对手
- 伊普斯维奇在过去六场二线比赛中有五场未能获胜
领导者应该占上风
莱斯特’；在英冠赛季的前半段，他们寻求直接重返英超的努力再好不过了，他们应该抓住机会，在周一对阵最接近的对手伊普斯维奇时，进一步远离第二梯队的其他球队。
狐狸队已经领先拖拉机男孩队7分，他们以10分的优势进入周末的自动升级名额，所以难怪许多观察家认为立即重返顶级联赛只是一种形式。
Enzo Maresca’；s的球队一直容易出现奇怪的问题，他们需要从上一次3-1输给状态正佳的考文垂的比赛中恢复过来，但这应该是一个警钟，与伊普斯维奇的冲突应该确保他们在比赛中处于领先地位。
Kieran McKenna’；上一次在英冠联赛客场以4-0惨败给同为升级挑战者的利兹队后，他们有自己的恢复工作，这看起来是一项艰巨的任务，所以支持主场获胜肯定有价值。
狐狸可以把拖拉机男孩挡在门外
如果节礼日两队在波特曼路相遇时没有在伤停补时阶段向萨姆·莫西丢球，莱斯特队本可以处于更有利的位置，而且他们通常都在自己的场地上严密防守。
米尔沃尔是自狐狸队降级以来，唯一一支在国王力量队的比赛中得分超过一次的球队，他们在过去十场主场联赛中保持了七场零封对手。
拖拉机男孩队在埃兰路球场的最后三分之一比赛中表现不佳，如果他们再次未能进球也就不足为奇了，因此主场2-0的成功可能会引起正确得分者的兴趣。
- Leicester have scored 14 goals in their last four home Championship matches
- The Foxes have kept seven clean sheets in their last ten league games at the King Power
- Ipswich have failed to win five of their last six second-tier encounters
Leaders should hold the upper hand
Leicester’s quest to get straight back into the Premier League could not have gone much better in the first half of the Championship season and they should take the opportunity to stretch away further from the rest of the second-tier when they face their closest rivals Ipswich on Monday.
The Foxes are already seven points ahead of the Tractor Boys and they headed into the weekend with a ten-cushion in the automatic promotion places, so it is no wonder many observers believe an immediate return to the top flight is merely a formality.
Enzo Maresca’s side have been prone to the odd hiccup and they need to recover from a 3-1 loss at in-form Coventry last time out, but that should act as a wake-up call and a clash with Ipswich should ensure they are on the top of their game.
Kieran McKenna’s side have their own recovery job after they were thumped 4-0 at fellow promotion challengers Leeds the last time they were on the road in the Championship, and this looks a tough task, so there is definitely value in backing a home win.
Foxes can keep Tractor Boys out
Leicester could have been in an even stronger position had they not conceded an injury-time goal to Sam Morsy when the teams met at Portman Road on Boxing Day and they have generally been tight defending their goal on their own patch.
Millwall are the only team to have scored more than once on their King Power visit since the Foxes were relegated and they have kept seven clean sheets in their last ten league games at home.
With the tractor Boys showing little in the final third when they were humbled at Elland Road, it would nt be a surprise if they failed to score again, so a 2-0 home success may be of interest to correct-score fanciers.
