A FAN with a special King Power of prediction hailed Leicester's promotion 10 MONTHS before they did the trick this week - thanks to an incredible omen.

Huddersfield supporter Oliver Eaton's June 2023 tweet explaining his Foxy feeling has now gone viral after City sealed an instant return to the Premier League.

Leeds' 4-0 loss at QPR on Friday night ensured Leicester's elevation from the Championship, three days after the Foxes beat Southampton 5-0.

Yet Eaton had already "congratulated" Enzo Maresca's men for their upcoming achievement last summer.

And it's all down to a staggering stat involving his beloved Terriers!

The marketing executive revealed each of Town's opponents in their first home game of the campaign from the past three seasons went up the same year.

He posted: "Here is your reminder that whoever gets Huddersfield's first home game has gone on to be promoted as Champions for the last three seasons.

"Norwich 20.21... Fulham 21.22... Burnley 22.23."

And once  a home match with the Foxes was scheduled for the August 12 curtain-raiser, Eaton added: "I guess it's congratulations to Leicester City."

True, his title prediction isn't quite home and dry, as Ipswich have an outside chance of overhauling Maresca's leaders.

Nonetheless, fans on social media saluted Eaton for being so on the crystal ball - one saying "unbelievable stat that".

But with Huddersfield doomed to relegation, one sad supporter posted: "Incredible coincidence! But it isn’t going to be the case next season."

Meanwhile, ironically, Leicester revelled in their promotion joy with a prophecy of their own.

The Foxes trolled second-placed rivals Leeds by tweeting "I predict a riot".
