Contrasting type

Leicester’s temporary bump, which got here by way of beating Spurs away, got here crashing again to earth with a 4-0 defeat at Everton a fortnight in the past. The Spurs win had been their first since 3 December, however the Everton efficiency didn’t point out that it might be repeated notably quickly, although they have been unlucky to not take Manchester United to extra-time within the FA Cup final weekend. 

Arsenal, in fact, proceed to journey the crest of a wave within the League following their 5-1 win in opposition to Manchester Metropolis a fortnight in the past. Placing 5 previous The Erling Haaland Group made one thing of a mockery of all of the chatter about their want for a quantity 9, although they have been then properly crushed by Newcastle within the Carabao Cup. They’re nonetheless unbeaten within the League since early November and have had a little bit FA Cup-related break.

Historical past

This recreation is a record-breaker. Once they drew 6-6 on the twenty first April 1930, it set a report for the best scoring draw within the prime flight which nonetheless stands in the present day. In more moderen occasions, Leicester’s report in opposition to the Gunners hasn’t been so nice. They’ve misplaced their final six in a row, though they did win 4 and draw one of many seven previous to that. When the 2 met earlier this season Arsenal ultimately gained 4-2, however not earlier than dropping a two-goal lead after which recovering to win in stoppage-time.

Key gamers

Leicester have been fairly poor up entrance this season, however they did rating twice at The Emirates in September with each scored by a defender; James Justin. Jamie Vardy’s aim at Spurs was his first within the Premier League for the reason that 8 December. He’s scored seven however no-one else has scored greater than 4. Leicester really want his objectives in the event that they’re to remain up this season.

Arsenal, in the meantime, had 5 totally different goalscorers in opposition to Manchester Metropolis, however the a type of 5 who drew essentially the most consideration was Myles Lewes-Skelly, whose post-goal celebration grabbed the headlines the next morning. It was his first for the membership, and it got here from his very first shot recorded within the Premier League! Would possibly he have one other in him this weekend?

Group Information

It by no means disaster, it crises. Kai Havertz is now reported as out for the season, becoming a member of Takehiro Tomiyasu, Ben White, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka on the Arsenal harm checklist.

Jamie Vardy, Jannik Vestergaard, and Victor Kristiansen might all return for Leicester following the Manchester United recreation, although Issahaku Fatawu and Ricardo Pereira are absent, Fatawu for the season.

Prediction

This match is third from backside in opposition to second within the desk, and there’s little to advocate Leicester with the ability to get a consequence from this one. Liverpool’s midweek draw within the ultimate Goodison Park Merseyside Derby signifies that the hole will likely be seven relatively than 9, so the chase is on for an Arsenal crew who additionally had a little bit of relaxation on account of their early FA Cup elimination. A snug 3-0 win in opposition to a crew prone to be relegated come the top of this season sounds about proper.
