Arsenal’s top four hopes will face another challenge in this home tie against Leicester. With 3 outstanding games, this season’s battle for 4th place is the Gunners to lose. However, the outstanding fixture are very difficult to navigate as they include a game against Spurs, a trip to Chelsea and a tie against Liverpool. This means to remain firmly in control of their Champions League hopes, the Gunners would be hoping to get all 3 points here.
For Leicester, this season’s performance have failed to meet the standards they set in the last few years where they consistently finished in the top 5. With 33 points on the board, 12th place Leicester can say good buy to any top 4 ambitions. However, if they put together a string of good results in the next set of games, a mid-table finish is possible.
The thrills of the PL is second to none and we expect this tie to be another intriguing one. To this end, today’s betting tip will be designed based on markets available on Bet9ja and Betway.
ARSENAL
Arteta’s men are currently on a 4-game winning streak. In fact, they have taken 25 points from a possible 30, with 8 wins in the last 10. As it stands, the Gunners are level with Man City as the only sides to have earned more PL points in the last 10.
Following their 2-0 win at King Power earlier this season, Arsenal would be looking to complete the league double over Leicester for the first time since 2015/16 season.
LEICESTER
After an initial dip in form, things are gradually taking shape for the Foxes. Having successfully navigated the Conference league first leg with a 2-0 win over Rennes, they will turn their attention to the Premier League where a hunt for mid-table finish continues.
Leicester will look to earn 3 league wins in a row following victories over Burnley and Leeds in the last 2 games. However given Arsenal’s form, this will be a difficult task.
