"Leicester have had the answers to every question that has been posed.

"I thought the telling period was around Christmas when they had Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City in a short space of time. 

"There was still half a season left after those games. Could they keep it going? That was the test and they have come through it."

We will focus on the build-up to Manchester United v Leicester here but there is a separate live page up and running on the goings on at the Liberty.

"Sandwiched between the two legs of their finely balanced Europa League semi-final, Liverpool will be forgiven for approaching this game with a great deal less intensity than you would normally associate with a Jurgen Klopp side.

"With relegation pressures having evaporated, it perhaps offers Swansea the opportunity to record a rare victory against a team they've beaten only once since returning to the top division in 2011.

"Having effectively completed his short-term mission, Francesco Guidolin's future has now become the main focus of the Welsh footballing scribes.

"If, as they predict, the Italian will be moving on in the summer, he will certainly be very keen to have as high a Premier League finish as possible on his CV, as well as a victory over Liverpool."

Time to look at some other big sporting shocks.

Mike Powell all but leaping out of the sand pit, Liz McColgan powering to gold in the 10,000m, Carl Lewis breaking the 100m world record.

The 1991 world athletics championships had plenty going for them. But nothing - for a British fan - quite like the men's 4x400m relay.

It was a Sunday morning (UK time), and the United States team were nailed-on favourites – but a cunning tactical switch to send out Roger Black (thought to be their best runner, who usually ran the anchor leg) out first in the final paid off. Big time.

They switched from their usual running order of (1) Derek Redmond, (2) Kriss Akabusi, (3) John Regis and (4) Black to (1) Black, (2) Redmond, (3) Regis and (4) Akabusi.

It left Akabusi (a 400m hurdler, lest we forget, rather than an out-and-out sprinter, who had only taken bronze in the hurdles) running the anchor leg against USA’s Antonio Pettigrew, the 400m world champion. Even though Pettigrew had a lead at the changeover, Akabusi kept with him and then beat him on the home straight.

Pettigrew could not believe it.

Spanish Terry: My mother's maiden name is Leicester. There. I have just sold my Internet security for a tenuous connection to sporting history.

Swansea make two changes from the side that lost 4-0 to Leicester - Jordi Amat replaces Federico Fernandez, and Jefferson Montero ousts Leroy Fer.

If they can make it there they'll make it, anywhere.

It's up to you, New York, New Yooorrrkkkk!

The Leicester story was even top of the agenda on the New York Times on Friday.

A handy guide for a global audience:, external

"British bookmakers listed Leicester City — pronounced Less-ter — as a 5,000-to-1 shot to emerge as the Premier League champion; by comparison, the so-called Miracle Mets of 1969 were a 100-to-1 choice."

You've got to hand it to Claudio Ranieri...

When the Leicester boss enters a room, expect a handshake. 

Can you imagine Sir Alex Ferguson, Louis van Gaal or Manuel Pellegrini taking time to do this to a room full of journalists?

Everybody is getting on the bandwagon...

Mitul Patel:No prouder moment than when someone asks you where you're from and you say LEICESTER.

S. Wright: My Father-in-law is a #LCFC fan, I have a season ticket with him even though i'm an #AFC fan. I'm excited for them! 

Liverpool make a raft of changes as they play just two-and-a-half days after their Europa League semi-final. Daniel Sturridge starts up front. 

Swansea: Fabianski, Rangel, Amat, Williams, Taylor, Britton, Cork, Sigurdsson, Routledge, Montero, Ayew.

Liverpool: Ward, Clyne, Skrtel, Lovren, Smith, Stewart, Chirivella, Ibe, Ojo, Coutinho, Sturridge.

French Ligue 1

In 2012, the unglamorous French side Montpellier did to Ligue 1 what Leicester City are doing to the Premier League this season. And they managed to finish the job.

Their entire playing budget - 33m euros (£25m) - was less than what rivals Paris St-Germain paid for Javier Pastore, but somehow they managed to shock French football by finishing above Lille, Lyon, Marseille and Carlo Ancelotti's PSG to win the first league title in their history.

"I would say don't change a thing, keep going as you are now. Stay yourselves," says then Montpellier boss Rene Girard.

"You can see that desire, you can see that they are not asking too many questions, you can see that they are playing with freedom. I know Ranieri from his time at Monaco.

"He is someone I really respect. He knows better than anyone how to manage this. It looks like a group who know they can achieve something special. Don't let any players leave the mould that you created at the start of the season."

Darren White: Game plays overnight in New Zealand. When I go to school tomorrow all the Man Utd fans will bow before me! (I hope) 

Rosie Dodds:  I'm supporting the foxes due to my brother in law. He's from Leicester. 

I have my doubts that Juventus legend Alessandro del Piero could point out Leicester on a map, but he is all over the Foxes story.

Just like everyone else!

Sport sees its fair share of shocks, of upsets. Of course it does. That is why we love it.

But what would truly mark out a Leicester title win, to me at least, is that they would have consistently and constantly upset the odds.

Wigan winning the FA Cup was improbable. A Leicester title should be impossible.

Burton reaching the Championship was improbable. A Leicester title should be impossible.

Buster Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson was improbable. A Leicester title should be impossible.

I could go on.

And we will...
