Swansea manager Michael Duff has said Leicester City, that parade Super Eagles stars Kelechi Iheanacho and Wilfred Ndidi will win the Championship title.
Duff posited that the Foxes are a stronger side than last year’s runaway champions Burnley.
Swansea will be targeting fifth straight league victory when they host Leicester on Saturday.
Duff says a meeting with Leicester, who have won 10 of their 11 league games this term, is “probably the toughest game of the season”.
“I think they will win the league,” the 45-year-old former Barnsley boss was quoted on BBC Sport.
“I think they are better than Burnley last year, which probably tells you everything.”
Leicester are top of the Championship having scored 23 league goals and conceded only six so far this season.
They have retained much of the squad which was relegated from the Premier League last year.
“We will have to suffer without the ball at times because they are a very good team, but what we don’t want to do is just sit in a block of 10 men behind the ball and hope to survive for 95 minutes,” Duff added.
“I think we have proved in the last few weeks that we can play and that we can defend.
“We will have to be at our best, no doubt about it, but there’s no apprehension. We will go out intent on trying to win the game.”
