    “I think Leicester will continue what they've been doing, playing well and with a smile on their face.

    “The pressure isn't getting there, the pressure is staying on the top and now they’re there they’re expected to win games. It’s a different type of pressure. How strong is your character to stay there?

    “It’s theirs to lose, they now have to fight tooth and nail.”

    "Canaries boss Alex Neil's best bet here is probably to just try to shut up shop and try and pinch a positive result because if they open up against Leicester then the Foxes will take them apart.

    "I just don't see Norwich as having the defensive ability or the mental strength they will need to get something out of the game.

    Prediction: 2-0

    Just a couple of things to note from those teams. Leicester had gone unchanged in their six previous games, the longest run in the top flight this season. The change only comes now because Danny Simpson was sent off at Arsenal.

    Our graphic says Norwich will line up 4-4-2. I'm wondering if that might be more of a 3-5-2, with Ivo Pinto pushed on to flood the midfield and the three at the back sitting deep to leave less space for Jamie Vardy.

    "There are two different schools of thought on how it might go for Leicester from hereon in:

    "1. The pressure's off. Nobody expected a title bid. Just play.

    "2. The pressure's well and truly on. Being in unchartered territory will get to one or two players and there'll be a wobble.

    "A few minds would move to the second school if they fail to beat Norwich, for whom there really is extra pressure now.

    "Like Leicester, they lost a winning position last time out. Now, whose minds have been better refreshed by a fortnight's break?

    "If it goes with form and nature (well, sort of), the Foxes should devour the Canaries."

    Pressure? Norwich would happily take the sort of pressure that Leicester are under.

    They travel to the Midlands out of the relegation zone on goal difference alone and with only one point from their past six matches.

    If football were played on paper, not only would the paper rip, but this would be a nailed-on home banker.

    Then again, paper doesn't take into account the wobbly nature of a title race, or the galvanising effect of a relegation battle.

    OK, so Leicester haven't just got "one opportunity" to seal the Premier League crown, but a two-point lead with 12 games to go is a chance touched by Midas himself.

    Of those dozen games, the majority are very winnable, starting with Norwich's trip to the King Power today.

    So, will Leicester resume their unlikely march towards glory, or will the pressure of squeaky bum time (and the disappointment of the last-gasp defeat by Arsenal) begin to tell?
