One after their relegation, Leicester are already back in the Premier League. The whole thing? Without even playing. This Friday evening, Leeds, 2nd in the Championship, lost 4-0 against QPR. A defeat which no longer allows the Peacocks to dream of a championship title (Leeds are 4 points behind Leicester and only have one match to play).

At the same time, this result is good for Leicester, leader with 94 points and who will finish the season, at least, second in the Championship. For this to happen, Ipswich (3rd with 89 points and three matches remaining) would have to finish the season like a cannonball. Regardless, the main thing lies elsewhere for Leicester: this return to the Premier League, which was the objective of the season.
