Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca is strategically planning to seize the opportunity for a late surge in the Championship’s automatic promotion race. After analyzing the recent results of Leeds United and Ipswich Town, Maresca is optimistic about the Foxes’ chances.
Despite suffering two consecutive defeats, Leicester has slipped to second place, just two points behind the leaders. Maresca believes that the recent drop in points for his team, Leeds, and Ipswich is not a mere coincidence. He attributes it to the competitive nature of the Championship, where every team is fighting for their own goals.
With a game in hand on their rivals, Leicester will kick off the weekend’s action with a crucial clash against West Brom at home. Maresca is counting on the support of the home crowd at the King Power Stadium to give his team an edge. He believes that playing in front of their fans can feel like having an extra player on the pitch, as demonstrated in their wins against Norwich and Birmingham.
As the season approaches its climax, Maresca is aware of the challenges that lie ahead but remains confident in his team’s abilities. With most of their remaining games at home, Leicester is well-positioned to capitalize on the advantage and push for promotion to the Premier League.
