Leicester strengthened their position at the top of the Sky Bet Championship as captain Jamie Vardy scored against his boyhood club in a 2-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday at King Power Stadium.
Enzo Maresca's side had the game won by half-time and are now 14 points clear of third-placed Southampton as they close in on promotion back to the Premier League.
Vardy, who was released by the Owls for being too small as a teenager, also played a part in the opening goal for Abdul Fatawu after four minutes.
Vardy started a game for the first time in more than two months and, coincidentally, the last Championship game he was on from the start was against Wednesday.
But this was a genuine team display with threats from all over the pitch in a commanding performance against Danny Rohl's struggling side.
