LONDON — As Leicester City continues to win matches in England, it continues to defy gravity even further afield. The Foxes cannot be caught in the Premier League so long as they win games, as Leicester did, 1-0, at Crystal Palace.
The victories are getting tighter. But right now — with 31 games played after Saturday’s win and just seven remaining — Leicester is closing in on a place in next season’s Champions League. The only clubs in Europe with more points in their domestic leagues are Barcelona, Atlético Madrid, Paris St.-Germain and Bayern Munich.
Members of the Thai family that saved Leicester financially five years ago are in evidence now, and beaming at every performance, home and away.
