Arsenal vs Leicester – Preview

After their unconvincing yet crucial victory over Rapid Wien in the UEFA Europa League, Arsenal switch focus back to the Premier League where they are set to lock horns with Leicester. This Sunday showdown will be another tricky test for the Gunners as they aim to bounce back from their recent English top-flight defeat.

Last weekend, Mikel Arteta's men traveled to a Man City side there for the taking. However, the Gunners put in a flat performance and appeared focused on managing the game than beating Guardiola's side. It was yet another worrying display from the north London giants who appear lackluster in attack mainly due to the lack of creativity.

Aubameyang and Co. have beaten everyone they have faced this season bar Liverpool and Man City. Despite this, the club's glaring need for a no.10 was not addressed over the summer and they have been paying the price. Mesut Ozil's exhile from the club means Arteta is missing a creator. This has left fans frustrated as the likes of Aubameyang, Pepe, and Lacazette are in dire need of supplying more often than not.

The 2-1 win over Rapid Wien was another example of exactly that. Despite a somewhat organized first-half display, Arsenal failed to test the opposition. Come the second half, the Gunners found themselves 1-0 and could have lost had it not been for goals from David Luiz and Aubameyang. There were positives from that game, however, the main one being Thomas Partey's performance. 

Having come on as a late substitute in the loss to Man City, the Ghanaian made his first start for the Gunners in the Europa League and did not disappoint, bossing the midfield. Gabriel was another player worthy of praise, winning almost every duel. Leicester will be a whole different test when compared to Rapid Wien, however.

Brendan Rodgers' men began the season with three straight wins in the league but are now on a two-game losing streak, suffering defeats at West Ham and Aston Villa. Will the Foxes suffer their third straight league defeat? Tune in to find out.

Team news

Arsenal: There were doubts surrounding the fitness of Willian and Ceballos but both are expected to be available on Sunday. Hector Bellerin, Granit Xhaka, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang either did not start or did not feature at all on Thursday but should be back in the lineup. Partey is tipped to make his first EPL start.

Leicester: Doubts linger over Jamie Vardy's fitness, having missed the club's last two games due to a calf injury. Caglar Soyuncu, Youri Tielemans, Daniel Amartey, and Ricardo Pereira are all sidelined.
