Leicester City are edging closer to Premier League survival after their win over Southampton, says Foxes winger Marc Albrighton.

Leicester City winger Marc Albrighton has insisted that his side are on the verge of Premier League survival after they beat Southampton 2-0 at the King Power Stadium.

The Foxes recorded their sixth win in their last seven games thanks to a first-half brace from Algerian midfielder Riyad Mahrez.

"This run is breeding confidence in us. There is a sense we are almost there but we need to keep doing what we are doing," Albrighton told BBC Sport. "I'd be surprised if the club has been through so many big games in such a short space of time but we have two massive ones now.

"We were dead and buried eight weeks ago and everyone pointed that out so if we can pull this escape off it will go down as one of the greatest."

The win lifted Nigel Pearson's side to 15th in the table, three points clear of Hull City, who now occupy the final relegation place.
