Match Preview

Momentum in the Arsenal camp is definitely starting to grow as Arteta’s side continued their rich vein of form with an impressive 0-2 win against Champions League chasing Wolves on Saturday. The home side will need to be at their best to get anything from this game however, as Brendon Rodgers side will be no pushovers.

With games coming thick and fast, Arsenal will hope this is the start of a win streak, especially with fixtures against direct rivals imminently. The Gunners have won their last 4 games in all competitions while managing to keep 3 clean sheets. Leicester on the other hand haven’t been in the best of form, winning one, drawing one and losing two in their last 4 games. It should be a great game with two attacking sides, let’s see the injury news for both teams:

Arsenal’s long term injuries remain the same with Bernd Leno, Gabriel Martinelli, Pablo Mari and Callum Chambers all unavailable until next season. Mesut Özil is being assessed ahead of this one, as he continues to struggle with back soreness. Brendon Rodgers will also face a couple of selection headaches as he recently said in a press conference that Ben Chilwell and James Maddison are major doubts for the game.
