    Leicester City have secured automatic promotion back into the English Premier League

    Leicester City have secured automatic promotion back into the English Premier League


    Their return to top-flight football was sealed after second-place Leeds, who are four points behind them, were thrashed 4-nil by QPR at Loftus Road.

    The Foxes achieve promotion at the first time of asking having been relegated from the Premier League last season following a third-from-bottom finish.

    An impressive campaign sees them currently sitting top of the Championship table after so far accumulating 94 points from 44 games.
