How Premier League has become a race for third

Following the restart, Leicester City's healthy lead over the chasing pack has been eroded with the Foxes winless so far and on a run of one victory in eight league games since 22 January.

The 2015/16 champions' 2-1 defeat to Everton at Goodison Park, with ex-Red Michael Keane named Man of the Match, leaves them still in third but only three points clear of United after our comfortable 3-0 success at Brighton & Hove Albion on Tuesday.

Leicester have a superior goal difference of nine, largely due to their 9-0 thrashing of Southampton earlier in the season, but their form will be a concern for manager Brendan Rodgers, with the Reds travelling to the King Power Stadium on the final day of the campaign.
