Arsenal vs Leicester: Premier League Prediction Match Details
Newly promoted Leicester City will travel to face Arsenal in the sixth game of the 2024/25 Premier League season at Emirates Stadium on Saturday noon. Can the winless new boys get their first three points?
Arsenal Preview & Form
Arsenal have made a dream start in their race to challenge the defending champions Manchester City for the Premier League crown. The Gunners are one of four sides in the Premier League yet to taste defeat. They have won three of their five league matches, with the other two ending in a draw. The Gunners ended their weekend game with a painful 2-2 draw at the Etihad Stadium despite being reduced to ten men in the late minute of the first half. They have amassed 11 points and are currently sitting fourth in the league table, two points behind City.
Mikel Arteta’s men were ruthless in their midweek game at the Carabao Cup as they beat League One side Bolton 5-1 to qualify for the fourth round of the tournament. The Gunners have been strong when playing in the face of their supporting fans, as they have remained unbeaten in their last ten home games in all competitions.
Leicester Preview & Form
Leicester City have endured a rough start in their hope to cement a place in the Premier League next season, having gone five straight league matches without a win this season. However, their last two consecutive games have ended with a draw. They managed to salvage a 1-1 draw against Everton at the weekend on their home soil. Their winless run of results sees the Foxes sit 15th in the league table with only three points. One major concern for their head coach, Steve Cooper, since promotion is their defense, as they have failed to keep any clean sheets in the Premier League. However, the Foxes have managed to score a goal in each of their League games.
Steve Cooper’s side continues their poor form during their midweek game at the Carabao Cup as they beat League Two Walsall sides on penalties after a goalless full-time result.
