Leicester wordt de titel gegund, tien pond kan één fan bijna 40.000 euro opleveren

Leicester City domineerde vandaag Manchester City en won ook het topduel. Met vijf punten voorsprong op Tottenham en nog dertien matchen te spelen, is de verrassing van de Premier League niet langer het 'lelijke eendje'. Nee, men gunt hen zelfs de titel.

Er is zelfs één fan die tien pond op de titelwinst van Leicester gezet heeft. Hij kan daarmee 31.270 pond (36.648 euro) gaan winnen als de ploeg van Marcin Wasilewski de grootste Engelse eer wegkaapt.

Maar iedereen begint erin te geloven en gunnen het de underdog ook. Zo gaat dat nu eenmaal met underdogs die tot grote hoogtes kunnen rijzen.

Not only have Leicester won at Man City but they dominated, I hope they win the league after that performance!

The #EPL title is Leicester's to loose now. With no other distractions, they must win it unless the bottle it like we we do. Doubt they will

Who doubts that Leicester City have the credentials of eventual title winners? #BPL
