Kasper Schmeichel: Leicester City have a chance to get into automatic places

Leicester City have a great opportunity to put themselves right into the automatic promotion mix over Christmas, goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel said.

City have picked up just four points from their last four games and are now five points behind the top two in the Championship.

But with league leaders Cardiff City coming to the King Power Stadium tomorrow, followed by a trip to face fourth-placed Hull City on Boxing Day, Schmeichel said City could make significant progress up the Championship table.

"These games are obviously important because if we beat both of them, then we are right up there," he said.

"These are two very big games and victories would put us in a great position. That is what we have to do.

"To be fair, we have played okay. At Millwall, I felt we shouldn't have lost. It was an annoying goal to concede.

"We have defended so well but every now and then you make a little mistake and someone is in.

"It is frustrating but, defensively, we have been very good, and we keep creating chances.

"We have shown with some of our previous runs we can do it, so we have to just stay in the mix, stay positive and get on a run.

"It would be great if we can get the win tomorrow. Results haven't really gone the way we wanted them to in the last couple of games.

"It is very important we pick up some wins soon and have a good Christmas period."

Even if City don't get a good points return over the Christmas period, Schmeichel said there was still plenty of time to get on a good run.

"Nothing has been won yet," he said.

"It is important we build a run at the right time. It is not too late for us to challenge for the top two by any stretch of the imagination. We have to keep plugging away. If we are as positive as we have been in the last few games we will get more wins than defeats."
