Leicester manager Enzo Maresca refuses to accept that his side are all-but promoted.
A 2-0 win against Sheffield Wednesday at King Power Stadium moved the Foxes 14 points clear of third-placed Southampton.
It looks to be only a matter of time before Maresca’s side confirm their return to the Premier League at the first time of asking.
But the Italian coach does not see it that way and warned his players against complacency over the next stage of the season.
“They won’t play. We aren’t changing anything, we have to keep winning and we have to respect our opponents.
“I’m very happy with this win, but now the focus moves on to Saturday when we play Middlesbrough.
“We struggled a little when they changed shape in the second half, but after about 15 or 20 minutes we were OK.
“But I wanted a third goal before half-time to make us more comfortable, if they score one they can come back.”
Jamie Vardy scored against his boyhood club and also played a part in Leicester’s opening goal after four minutes.
“Jamie showed well with two goals against Stoke and he was fighting and pressing against Watford, now he’s the player who has scored the most goals for us this season,” Maresca added.
“I am very happy with him. I felt this game would suit Jamie and the idea here was for him to start. It’s my duty to give everyone minutes, sometimes you can, sometimes you can’t, but Jamie was working well.”
Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl was encouraged by his team’s second-half performance.
“We showed a lot more in the second half and I was happier with our reaction to going behind,” he said.
“We changed to a back five but it was more having the belief.
