Winger Kasey McAteer says a busy festive schedule is a "massive opportunity" for Leicester City to strengthen their promotion hopes.
City will play three games in the three weeks up to New Year's Day, including a trip to fellow high-flyers Ipswich Town on Boxing Day.
The Foxes sit top of the Championship table, eight points ahead of third-placed Leeds United.
"It's going to be a busy Christmas period for us," McAteer said.
"We just need to make sure we're recovered right, it's a massive opportunity for us to get points on the board.
"The manager has said that in every meeting so we know the importance of the upcoming games and I'm sure the boys are ready to go.
