Leicester Complete Cinderella Season
With Tottenham dropping points against West Bromwich Albion last week, Leicester are suddenly just inches away from the Premier League title. A win at Old Trafford on Sunday would do the trick, as would a Tottenham loss on Monday.
It would be the conclusion to one of the most bizarre seasons in Premier League history, where nearly all of the top clubs faltered at some point and the Foxes, seen by many as relegation candidates at the start of the campaign, were by far the most consistent team.
Per Brian Sears of Sportingintelligence, more than just a few clubs are on pace to set milestones for their best or worst Premier League seasons in history, indicating just how crazy things have been:
It’ll be difficult to find any pundit who doesn’t agree Leicester deserve the title, but perhaps fittingly, there are plenty who don’t think they’ll win it at Old Trafford. People like Sky Sports’ Paul Merson have doubted Ranieri’s troops all season, after all:
"If you're a Manchester United fan you don't want Leicester winning the Premier League on Sunday, that would be the last thing you need. If you're the manager of Manchester United and that happens you're in severe trouble.
[…]
But I don't think it will happen, though, and Manchester United will win this game. I was very impressed with them in the first half of the FA Cup semi-final, and with Wayne Rooney playing a bit deeper they're a better team.
"
Leicester looked nothing short of amazing in Week 35, easily overcoming the absence of the suspended Jamie Vardy and cruising to a 4-0 win over Swansea City. The Foxes are highly motivated, and their philosophy built around defence and counter-attacking football is one that should trouble United.
The Mancunians are at their best when young forwards Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford have space to use their athleticism, and space is the one thing the Foxes don’t give their opponents.
The Red Devils will have plenty to play for on Sunday, and manager Louis van Gaal made it clear his team has to win, per Metro’s Chris Winterburn:
But the Foxes have come through in key moments all season long, and a title celebration at Old Trafford just feels right. Against United’s young but inexperienced attack, you have to like Leicester’s chances.
Chelsea Maintain Home Unbeaten Streak Against Spurs
As reported by Telegraph Sport, Spurs haven’t beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge since 1990, a remarkable streak that should give Leicester fans hope the title will be won this weekend, even if their team can’t get past United.
Chelsea still have an outside shot at qualifying for next year’s UEFA Europa League, but even if that wasn’t the case, the Blues would do everything possible to keep the streak going and sink their rivals’ title challenge.
Given Tottenham’s form, this could be the year Spurs finally end their dreadful form at Stamford Bridge, but Dele Alli’s three-match suspension is a significant blow for manager Mauricio Pochettino’s troops.
As shared by Squawka Football, the youngster has put up some impressive numbers this season:
Without Alli running the show in midfield, Spurs will lose a dose of toughness, as well as production in the attacking third. That puts more pressure on Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela to produce, and it will make things a little easier for the Blues in the trenches.
Harry Kane has been in superb form and Mousa Dembele has quietly enjoyed a fantastic season in the centre of the pitch, but without the suspended Alli, expect Spurs to come up just short and continue their miserable run in west London.
