Leonardo Ulloa: 'Leicester City believe we will stay up'

Leonardo Ulloa admits that there is a growing belief within the Leicester camp that they can avoid relegation after beating Swansea City for a third successive win.

Leonardo Ulloa has admitted that there is a growing belief within the Leicester City camp that they can avoid relegation after beating Swansea City for a third straight win.

The Argentine striker's first goal in 13 games helped the Foxes to a 2-0 victory which sees them jump off the bottom of the Premier League for the first time since November.

Only goal difference now separates Nigel Pearson's side from safety and Ulloa has insisted that they are confident of completing an unlikely escape.

"I am happy because it is a very good result but now we need to think about the next game," Ulloa is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"It is a very important result. We believe and the fans believe we will stay in the Premier League but we have to go from game to game."

Leicester travel to Turf Moor to face Burnley, who have inherited bottom of the table from the Foxes, next weekend.
