Leicester City claimed a tenth win from 11 matches on Saturday when they saw off Stoke City to continue their fast start to life in the Championship

While Leeds United have shown some encouraging form in recent weeks as Daniel Farke gets his feet under the desk at Elland Road, it is another of last season's relegated sides that are really turning heads in the Championship.

Leeds will be hoping to derail the Foxes when they visit Elland Road on Friday, November 3, but ahead of that Stoke boss Alex Neil has said that Leicester are 'one of the best Championship teams in a long time,' after his side were powerless to prevent their latest victory.“I thought our set-up was good,” the Stoke boss said. “I don’t think they had a chance until the goal. The goal is really disappointing from our perspective.

“The minute we changed, they brought on pace at the top end of the pitch. If you’re going to squeeze and try to compress the game, Jamie Vardy at this level is going to cause you all sorts of problems.
