Arsenal vs Leicester Prediction & Betting tips
Arsenal will receive Leicester City on Wednesday evening and just have a good result. Can the good feeling then finally be extended?
Arsenal :
Arsenal made the final of the FA Cup last weekend and, as a hit on the rocket, competitor Liverpool left home points by losing 1-2 from Crystal Palace. As a result, third place is “only” nine points from Arsenal, but Arsenal still has three games on Liverpool. Unfortunately there are several hijackers on the coast; Manchester United managed to win his match and Manchester City also has good papers. Arsenal is still not there yet.
The FA Cup final was achieved by winning Manchester City in the semi-final after 2-1 win. It was still 0-0, but after an hour, Sergio Agüero made it 1-0 for City. After that, Arsenal began to push and made it the best 1-1 via Nacho Monreal, after which Arsenal could have ruled within 90 minutes. That left The Gunners after, but in the first half of the extension, Alexis Sánchez made the winning hit.
Now waiting for the current title holder, Leicester City, where Arsenal likes to play. In his own Emirates Stadium, Arsenal managed to win his last nine games against The Foxes, although last year’s 2-1 was very difficult and only in the final second. For Theo Walcott, he really likes playing Leicester because in three of the last four games against Leicester he managed to score. However, it’s only whether Wenger Walcott is going to use because the Englishman is more often on the couch than he loves.
Probable setup Arsenal
Cech, Paulista, Koscielny, Holding, Bellerin, Coquelin, Xhaka, Gibbs, Sánchez, Özil, Welbeck
Leicester :
It’s all so close in the Premier League that a team like Leicester City, the current number fifteen, can still finish in the top ten. The backlog at number ten Watford is only three points, while Leicester has played a game less and has a better goal balance. A victory at Arsenal can therefore do miracles in this regard, but Leicester also knows that winning at Arsenal will be difficult.
The last game played by Leicester was the return of the quarter final of the Champions League. In his own home, Leicester did not go beyond a 1-1 draw against Atlético Madrid, causing Leicester to be eliminated. Nevertheless, Leicester could be very proud of what this season has been performing and can see the show on the Premier League, in which Leicester played 2-2 at Crystal Palace three days earlier.
Under Craig Shakespeare, Leicester has at least reconsidered his scoring ability. In the seven Premier League games in which Shakespeare waved with the scepter, Leicester scored every match at least two goals. Jamie Vardy scored seven goals in his ten games (all competitions) under Shakespeare. All in all, we can say that Leicester does not have to worry about Arsenal, if at least we close an eye on the results.
Probable setup Leicester City
Schmeicehl, Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs, Mahrez, Ndidi, Drinking Water, Albrighton, Okazaki, Vardy
