We said: Leicester City 3-0 Huddersfield Town

 Leicester have been largely unaffected by the unforgiving demands of the winter schedule, and even with Iheanacho now joining a few stricken teammates in the infirmary, there should only be one outcome to Monday's game. The thumping of Blackburn appears to have been a one-off for a Huddersfield side whose away form has left a lot to be desired all season long, so the Foxes ought to start 2024 as they mean to go on.
