EPL Arsenal Vs. Leicester City Preview ⚽ ⚽
This super Sunday feature would see red-hot Arsenal take on Leicester City at the Emirates stadium. This match is set to a good test for all of Arsenal credentials as genuine top four contenders. For Leicester, it would be a good chance for them to record what would be their third win in their last four games. This promises to be a classic encounter.
Arsenal is a team which has caught fire after their first two losses in their first two games. This has led to them going on a beautiful run of nine games without defeat. There have been talks around the Emirates that the players have gotten their mojo back since the exit of legendary manager Arsene Wenger. With players such as Lacazette and Aubameyangfiring on all cylinders and the new signings signing gelling well, Arsenal merely is in the mood at the moment.
Leicester, on the other hand, have their best start to any premier league session with an exception to the year that they were crown champions. They would be hoping that Jamie Vardy has something up his sleeve in this game. Jamie Vardy is known for his habit of scoring against significant opposition. Since the year they were crown champions, no other player in Leicester have had a goal against the big six more than Jamie Vardy. Clearly then, he is their main threat going into this game.
Unai Emery, the new arsenal coach, would be pleased with the fact that he has Mesutback from the minor issue which kept him out of the last game. He would most likely choose to play him alongside Iwobi whose form has also simply been unbelievable while the partnership between Aubameyang and Lacazette is set to continue. The new partnership which is also fast developing between Granit Xhaka and Luca the new signing is also most likely going to be on display here again.
When it comes to stats and history, Arsenal seems to be clear winners of this game. Arsenal has not lost a single game to the foxes in the last 11 games which have been played at the Emirates. In a record which stretches in the 1980s, the foxes are yet to win a single game at the Arsenal in about 25 matches! Arsenal has always managed to stay in complete control anytime they host their opponents at home. One player who would be looking to break the ice would be Aubameyang. Since he arrives at Arsenal, he has a share in 19 goals in just about 21 appearances. He would be looking to add that tally and establish himself as the leading man in Arsenal’s attack.
As far as super Sunday goes, this is really a thrilling clash to look forward to. While there is always the possibility of this match ending in a draw, it is highly unlikely that most teams would finish the game without even scoring a single goal. That is almost certain never to happen.
