Leicester vs Arsenal: Team Analyses

Apart from the recent FA Cup loss, Leicester is struggling to stay out of the relegation zone during this Premier League season. Their staggering 4-0 loss against Everton has sent them tumbling down to the 18th position on the league table. After Steve Cooper’s sacking, the Foxes fans expected more from Ruud van Nistelrooy, but after facing seven back-to-back defeats, things look pretty tense for the team.

Although they were knocked out of the EFL Cup, Arsenal have had quite a phenomenal Premier League season. With 50 points, Mikel Arteta’s men stand second on the league table with only two losses out of the 24 matches that they have played. Their recent clash with Man City resulted in a whopping 5-1 victory, and this is not the first time that the Gunners have secured such big wins during this campaign.

The upcoming fixture is quite crucial for the Foxes as it will make all the difference whether they stay in the relegation zone or claim back their 17th position on the table. After a fresh EFL Cup defeat, Arsenal will also strive hard to bring back their winning streak.
