Leicester re-established a three-point lead at the top of the Championship with a 3-2 win over Birmingham on Monday night.
Stephy Mavididi finished off a lightning counter-attack to give the Foxes the lead in spite of a bright start from Wayne Rooney’s men at St Andrew’s.
well-crafted move saw Jordan James net a quickfire equaliser, but a Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall strike and another from Mavididi had the visitors 3-1 up and coasting towards victory within the first five minutes of the second half.
From nowhere, James pulled another back with 16 minutes to play, but the goal did not spark the late comeback the hosts desired, despite the introduction of attacking pair Scott Hogan and Lukas Jutkiewicz.
Leicester move onto 55 points as a result of their fourth straight win, three clear of Ipswich and an incredible 13 ahead of third-placed Leeds.
