WEB Leicester's Hopes of an Immediate Return to the Premier League Suffer a Fresh Setback
Leicester's promotion hopes took a blow on Friday after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Millwall at The Den.
The Foxes, who were relegated from the Premier League last season, had taken the lead through Harvey Barnes in the first half. However, Millwall hit back after the break through Jed Wallace to earn a point.
The result leaves Leicester in 12th place in the Championship, eight points adrift of the play-off places. With just seven games remaining, their hopes of an immediate return to the top flight are fading.
Manager Brendan Rodgers will be disappointed with his team's performance, particularly in the second half. Leicester created several chances to win the game, but they were unable to take them.
Millwall, meanwhile, will be pleased with a point. The Lions are now unbeaten in their last five games and have moved up to 16th in the table.
