Dean Smith used The Boomtown Rats’ hit list to summarize Leicester’s approach to the start of the working week.
It’s no wonder that Smith dislikes Mondays after Fulham beat them 5-3 on the coronation bank holiday. When the Premier League fixture generator delivered up the visit of Liverpool on the same day of the week, it wasn’t listening to his jukebox selection.
The Reds took advantage of some sloppy Fox defence to win 3-0, with Trent Alexander-Arnold’s free kick adding to Curtis Jones’ first-half double.
With only two games remaining in the season, Leicester find themselves in a four-way battle to avoid the final two relegation spots ahead of Championship-bound Southampton.
Here’s what the quarter of clubs at the bottom of the table have in store.
The Foxes play West Ham in their final match of the season. Leicester’s most recent Premier League clean sheet was a 2-0 victory at the London Stadium in November.
