LLLLWDLLD. This Manchester City nonsense can’t go on for much longer, can it? But they’re not alone! Say, look at Leicester’s Premier League form over the same period: DLLLWDLLL. And so here we are, the 2016 winners and the four-in-a-row reigning champs, both down on their luck, meeting at the King Power in a match in which any result is possible, pretty much all of them of eyebrow-oscillating proportion. Kick-off is at 2.30pm GMT. It’s so very strange that it’s come to this, but it’s on!
