AFTER last season’s triumph it will take something pretty disastrous to wipe the smile from the faces of Leicester fans.

But the way things are going, that might just happen.

They look a long a million miles away from the team that defied their 5000-1 odds to win the title last season.

Plenty predicted that the Foxes would finish in the bottom half of the league this season.

But few thought they find themselves dragged into a relegation scrap – with Claudio Ranieri’s men now sitting just five points above the drop zone.

Their 21-point tally is the joint-worst total ever for reigning top-flight champions at this stage of the season.

And SunBets are currently offering the best odds you can get with any bookie that the Foxes being a Championship club again next season.

While you can get 11-1 with SunBets, the odds are even shorter elsewhere.

The Foxes are as short as 8-1 with a couple of other betting companies.

And most are pricing them at 10-1.
