Leicester City is heading towards a record-breaking season in the Championship, and while Enzo Maresca acknowledges the competition from Ipswich, Southampton, and Leeds United, he remains focused on the challenging race for promotion.
With a narrow 1-0 victory over Norwich City, the Foxes have maintained their lead in the Championship promotion race. Despite the pressure from the chasing teams, Maresca remains cautious and realistic about the tough competition they face.
Maresca emphasized the unpredictable nature of the Championship, expressing that the race for promotion will continue until the end of the season. While City is still favored to win the title, Maresca acknowledges the need for sustained performance to secure promotion to the Premier League.
City’s strong track record against lower-ranked teams gives them an advantage, and even a slight dip in form would still leave them in a strong position. With the potential to accumulate a remarkable 102 points by the end of the season, the chasing teams would need to drastically improve their performance to catch up.
As the season unfolds, Maresca remains focused on maintaining City’s performance and staying ahead in the competitive promotion race.
