Making it back to the Premier League is as important and dangerous for Leicester City as it was for legendary fictional movie characters The Warriors. Battling through New York City all the way to Coney Island in Brooklyn is a bit like going away to Millwall FC and missing the bus or train home! Roadblocks, confrontations and many other issues face the so-called Fearless Foxes. Any problems can pop up, such as losing your best players to favourable transfers, or injured due to tough tackling Championship rivals.
Can LCFC ultimately previal in this campaign and return to the EPL? I think the potential, looming Profit and Sustainability points deduction punishment(s) will dictate the East Midlanders' entire season. Which is fairly clear. So, what are the current predictions? We have seen one claim using a reputed Supercomputer. And Leicester were not predicted to secure an automatic C'ship promotion place. Oh dear. But can we trust this forecast or not?
Leicester City aren't predicted to secure automatic C'ship promotion place says this article
Leicester definitely have some fierce rivals when considering the chances of reclaiming their Championship crown of 2023/24. Bristol City and Middlesbrough are certainly competitors in that respect.
The Yorkshire Post named the pair as potential first and second placed in the competitive division this year. The Boro are predicted to be first by TYP's Supercomputer.

Expected points: 74.25"
So where are City in the prophesied standings? Well, you've probably guessed it: third. That hypothetical finish would guarantee the King Power outfit the most desirable Playoff spot. However, it would also mean LCFC missing out on automatic advancement.
As I previously indicated, Marti Cifuentes' prime worry isn't the standard of his roster, which is competent enough to gain a league upgrade. It is the impending ramifications of broken PSRs that matters most. A 12 point withdrawal, for example, would be difficult to overcome.
