There's a time and a place for confidence in football, but this might be a step too far.

Leicester City might be clear at the top of the Premier League table, with a chance to extend their lead with victory over Southampton at the King Power Stadium, but they're by no means over the line just yet. That's not the impression you get from this scarf seller, though, as he has decided to crown the club champions on the first weekend of April. There's a long way to go, though, and Leicester know that more than anyone else - this time last year the Foxes were bottom of the table. They'll hope this preemptive celebration doesn't jinx the club and end up leading to them missing out on the title. https://twitter.com/Football__Tweet/status/716590324248879104
