LEICESTER
Leicester suffered a shock 2-0 midweek loss at home at the hands of minnows Slavia Prague which saw them exit the Europa League at the round of 32 after the first leg of this tie ended in a goalless stalemate in the Czech capital last week.
The Foxes have lost 9 games all season in all competitions and of these 7 have come in their own backyard! Not many positives can be drawn from this latest loss except for the fact that they can now train their guns on the Premier League with no other cup distractions on their menu.
In spite of their struggles at home, they are very much on course for a top 4 finish this term after narrowly missing out last season. They have won this fixture for the past three seasons and will be confident they can take something from this game.
ARSENAL
Arsenal fans went through a roller coaster of emotions in their action-packed second leg tie against Benfica at the Emirates Stadium. They had to dig deep to come from 2-1 down with Tierney and Aubameyang securing a hard-fought 3-2 win on the night to book a ticket to the next round.
This win was a breath of fresh air for the Gunners who have had to endure a tumultuous league campaign that has seen them flirting with the mid-table for virtually the entirety of the season. Their last league engagement was a 1-0 loss to Manchester City on home turf which was their third loss in four league games.
Arteta will be hoping to get some spring from the fight and bite they showed against Benfica as they seek to salvage whatever is left for this season.

LEICESTER VS ARSENAL BETTING PREDICTIONS
Leiceter will be looking for redemption here following that shock exit from the Europa League. They have kept pace with the league leaders for just about the length and the breadth of the season thus far. They are tied in a seesaw battle with Manchester United for the second slot. Despite their poor home record, they seem to relish this particular fixture. They beat Arsenal 1-0 in the reverse fixture at the Emirates and have won this corresponding fixture in the last three seasons. We are backing them to win or draw here @ 1.43 with Mybet.Africa Welcome Bonus.
We do not anticipate a snore-fest here. This should be an action-packed thriller as both sides will be fired up to get all three points on offer. The corners market is of particular interest. Their recent encounters have yielded quite a few and an odd of 1.54 for Over 9.5 corners here is certainly worth a punt which is why we are backing that for our final betting tip here.
