Hugo Lloris: 'Leicester City deserve title if they do not drop points'

Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris says that Leicester City deserve to be Premier League champions if they do not drop a point in their next three games.

Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has claimed that Leicester City deserve to win the Premier League title if they finish the season without dropping a point.

The Foxes currently have an eight-point lead at the top of the table with three games left to play.

Spurs can reduce the gap to five points if they manage to beat West Bromwich Albion in tonight's match at White Hart Lane, but Leicester need just five to take home the English crown.

"The key is to be focused on ourselves," Lloris told Sky Sports News. "We know if we are consistent until the end we can be rewarded. Of course it's not just up to us, but Leicester should drop points, if not then they deserve the trophy.

"We are in a good position and situation and it is a great chance for us. So we need to carry on and we will see what happens at the end of the season. Nobody can guess what will happen.

"We need to be consistent and not think about what is happening around us. We are strong together. We know where we want to be at the end and we try to work hard and prepare as well as possible. We are very motivated because we have a chance to do something great for the club."

Spurs are unbeaten in their last four games in all competitions.
