Leicester VS Arsenal MATCH PREDICTION

PRE-MATCH ANALYSIS

This mid-week is dedicated to the postponed games. In one of them Leicester City will meet Arsenal at its King Power Stadium. This match should be held in March. How will play the teams of the French managers?

Leicester City performs bad in the second part of Spring. Its last victory dates on March 31. There the Foxes beat Brighton and Hove 0:2. Then the former English champion earned just a point out of fifteen possible. The hosts lost to Newcastle United, Burnley, Crystal Palace and West Ham. Only one fixture of this period ended with a goalless draw.

Totally Leicester has 44 points after 36 games, eleven wins and draws and fourteen losses. The home side has scored 49 goals and conceded 54 goals. It will close up this season at Wembley Stadium playing against the Spurs.

Last week Arsenal demonstrated a perfect performance during Arsene Wenger’s farewell home game. His guys crushed the seventh-ranked Burnley with a huge score 5:0. Unfortunately, this did change nothing in its tournament status. The Gunners stay the sixth team of the English Premier League with 60 points. This victory got fifth in a row. Actually the guests underperform at away with six consecutive defeats.

The famous club will not take part in the Champions League again. It has been even eliminated from the semifinal of the Europa League.  



The last H2H meeting ended with over 6,5 in total.

Leicester’s manager Claude Puel has a lot of sidelined people including Robert Huth. His colleague Arsene Wenger cannot rely on four players including Mesut Ozil and Laurent Koscielny.

Leicester has failed to score in its two home games. Arsenal has scored in each of its last eight matches. 69% of Arsenal's matches had over 2.5 goals scored in total. Arsenal has scored in 71% of its away matches.

Arsenal is playing a scoring football within a whole Spring. The Gunners score and concede in each away game of this period. We expect the hosts will interrupt its short goalless series at home. We believe both sides will exceed over 3,0 in total. We recommend this stake with a good coefficient of 1.90.
