"As Leicester prepare to face Brighton this afternoon, they must end their recent poor form or risk losing out on the play-offs.Three months ago, I wrote a piece on Chris Wood&amp;rsquo;s transfer from Millwall to Leicester, calling it &amp;ldquo;season-defining&amp;rdquo; for both clubs; in a negative sense for the Lions and a positive one for the Foxes. The way Wood&amp;rsquo;s started his Leicester career, he appeared to be the final piece in Nigel Pearson&amp;rsquo;s attempt to gain Premier League promotion. But today, as Pearson&amp;rsquo;s side prepare to face Gus Poyet&amp;rsquo;s Brighton, it doesn&amp;rsquo;t seem an exaggeration to say this is Leicester&amp;rsquo;s last chance to save a season that is in danger of being thrown away. On the first day of February, following a 2-1 home win against Wolves, Leicester were second in the Championship, three points clear of third-placed Hull and 11 clear of seventh-placed Brighton. Looking back, that was the start of their incomprehensible slide down the table, as they won only once in their next eleven league games. A run of just six points from a possible 33 sees them in seventh going in to today&amp;rsquo;s match against the Seagulls, who are one place and two points above them. A win this afternoon is crucial if Leicester wish to maintain any hope of a return to the top flight after nine years away. And even that may not be enough as upcoming fixtures against Watford, Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace may leave them cursing a shocking run that shows no signs of ending. Leicester&amp;rsquo;s fate remains in their own hands&amp;hellip;just. But lose today and it falls into the hands of others. In a league as unpredictable as the Championship, that isn&amp;rsquo;t always a bad thing. And the absurd thing is that despite such a terrible run of form, the Foxes may still get promoted. But what just two months ago was a tantalising possibility now seems an almost-impossible dream. Will Leicester turn their season around starting this afternoon?&amp;nbsp; Or will they miss out on the play-offs?  image: &amp;copy; lefty1007"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
