    The sprinkling of stardust may have made way for a dose of reality so far this season as Leicester struggle to replicate their stunning 2015-16 Premier League form, but there's still a bit of magic in midweek for the Foxes.

    For the first time in club's 132-year history, they find themselves rubbing shoulders with the best of the best in Europe and they kicked off their maiden Champions League campaign with a hugely impressive 3-0 win at Club Brugge a fortnight ago.

    Tonight they face tougher opposition in the shape of two-times European champions Porto, but the Champions League puts the Foxes back into a position they thrived in last season - the underdogs.

    Can they defy the odds once again?

  3. Champions League comes to town

    Almost eight years ago to the day, Leicester City fans turned up at the Foxes' ground to watch their side take on Lincoln City in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.

    Still adjusting to life in League One following relegation earlier that year, the two sides played out 120 minutes of goalless football, before Leicester just about scraped through on penalties.

    For the Foxes fans who attended that game it must feel like a lifetime ago as they prepare to make the journey to the same ground tonight to witness history being made.

    The Champions League is coming to town.
