Leicester City appear increasingly resigned to the grim prospect of back-to-back relegations, with their recent form offering little cause for optimism.
A run of five Championship matches without a win has dragged the Foxes deeper into trouble, and the 1-0 home defeat to Swansea City last time out has left them four points from safety.

Attention is already drifting towards a pivotal summer, one that is likely to bring significant upheaval.
A number of first-team players are expected to depart following a deeply disappointing campaign. Patson Daka is among those who could move on, having managed just six goals in 40 appearances and failing to provide the cutting edge required.
Financial considerations will also dictate decisions. Hamza Choudhury is reportedly earning £50,000 per week, a figure that jars with a series of underwhelming displays in midfield.
Ricardo Pereira, once a standout performer, has similarly declined, and his £80,000 weekly wage now looks increasingly difficult to justify.
Harry Winks remains the club’s highest earner at £90,000 per week. While he played a prominent role during Enzo Maresca’s title-winning campaign, expectations have not been met this season. For a £10 million signing, his influence has waned at crucial moments.
With interest building, Leicester may see the summer as the right time to part ways.
