Claudio Ranieri says Tottenham are the favourites

Claudio Ranieri has named Tottenham as title favourites as the Leicester boss moves to ease the pressure off his side.

The Foxes are two points clear of Spurs in the Barclays Premier League and host West Brom tonight, with their rivals facing West Ham tomorrow night.

Tottenham’s 2-1 comeback win over Swansea on Sunday kept the pressure on Leicester, who beat Norwich 1-0 on Saturday, but Ranieri believes Mauricio Pochettino’s men are frontrunners.
