Leicester ran out 2-1 winners against United in Tuesday night’s Premier League clash at Old Trafford.

Luke Thomas put the Foxes ahead early on with his first Premier League goal but Mason Greenwood soon levelled for the home side.

But City hit back and Caglar Soyuncu headed a second-half winner for Brendan Rodgers’ men as they bounced back from a shock 4-2 home defeat to Newcastle.

The result saw Manchester City crowned champions and lifted Leicester back up to third in the table, with two league fixtures remaining.

They are four points behind second-placed United, having played a game more, and two points ahead of fourth-placed Chelsea, who also have a game in hand.

Crucially, the Foxes are eight points clear of fifth-placed West Ham (one game in hand) and nine ahead of Liverpool (two games in hand).

Next up for Leicester is the FA Cup final against Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday (May 15).

After that, they face the same opponents at Stamford Bridge in midweek (Tuesday, May 18), before rounding off their campaign against seventh-placed Tottenham at the King Power Stadium on May 23.

Here’s a look at the remaining fixtures for Leicester and their main rivals…
