How times evolve.
Ironically, the day Leicester City marks their last Championship match before transitioning to League One coincides with the 10th anniversary of their extraordinary Premier League title victory.

Their remarkable 5,000/1 triumph was secured thanks to Chelsea and Eden Hazard, who staged an incredible comeback from two goals down to draw against Tottenham at Stamford Bridge.
Gary Cahill reduced the deficit, while the magnificent Hazard came off the bench to deliver a spectacular goal with seven minutes left, thwarting Mauricio Pochettino’s side’s own championship aspirations.
As highlighted in a tweet, Leicester and Spurs currently occupy vastly different standings, and once again, Chelsea will play a pivotal role in the season of their London rivals.
The two teams are set to clash at the Bridge on May 19, which could become the night Spurs face relegation in one of the biggest Premier League upsets since Leicester’s title victory.
Such is the unpredictable nature of football.
