1. Leicester City

They already wrapped up their first Premier League title earlier this season. However, their win is one of the best Cinderella stories in sports since the 1980 Olympics gold medal match between USA and USSR in men’s hockey.

Fans will want to take in all they can from the historic season for Leicester City. They will take part in the 2016-17 Champions League and look to defy the odds for another year. They will most likely make an early exit and not make it out of the group stage.

Nonetheless, this season’s successes and accolades are still worth celebrating. Fans can enjoy their match against Chelsea on Sunday and be grateful that their favorite team’s title hopes didn’t come down to their match against the Premier League juggernaut. The match will take place on CNBC and is worth watching over most of the other games being played at the same time as Leicester is still playing arguably their best soccer in franchise history.

It would be a cherry on top to come away with a road win against Chelsea to close out their 2015-16 season.
