Leicester City’s dreams of making a quick return to the Premier League were dealt a blow with a 1-0 defeat to Bristol City in the Championship. Anis Mehmeti’s goal sealed the win for Bristol City, pushing Leicester City further down the table.

Despite leading the league for a significant portion of the season, Leicester City has struggled in recent games, winning only one out of their last six matches. This has allowed Leeds to overtake them at the top of the table, with Leicester now sitting in second place, level on points with Leeds but just one point ahead of Ipswich.

The top two teams at the end of the regular season are guaranteed promotion to the Premier League, with the third spot being decided through playoff games. Leicester City’s recent poor form has put their promotion hopes in jeopardy, especially after suffering a third consecutive defeat to QPR.

In a separate match, Ipswich boosted their promotion bid with a 2-0 win over Plymouth, further complicating Leicester City’s path back to the Premier League. With Leeds and Ipswich also in the running for promotion, the competition is fierce in the Championship.

As Leicester City faces challenges on the pitch, their fans are left wondering if their team can turn things around and secure a spot in the Premier League next season. The race for promotion is heating up, and every match counts in this highly competitive league.
