The Gunners will look to continue their unbeaten run in the Premier League

Arsenal will be looking to put in a strong showing in front of their home fans as they welcome the Foxes to Emirates on Saturaday afternoon. The Gunners are currently placed at 4th in the league and have shown promising form, especially at home. The Gunners have accumulated 11 points from five matches, winning three and drawing two. Their home form has been steady, with one win and one draw. They have been solid till now, boasting an unbeaten record in their last five matches against Leicester City.

It has been a solid return to the Premier League for Leicester City who have picked up points against the likes of Tottenham and Crystal Palace already. They sit 15th in the table with just three points from five games. They have managed two draws and three losses till now. Leicester City’s away form has been particularly concerning with just one point gained from two matches. They will have to give their best to get something positive from this match.

Players to Watch

Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal)

His standout quality is his ability to attack the penalty area. He is a good dribbler and can create goalscoring opportunities for himself as well as his teammates. He can get past players with his dribbling ability and can get into dangerous positions. He is a constant threat to the opposition’s defence and likes to take on players with his trickery. He has good awareness and can find his teammates in better positions in the box. Martinelli is a team player who always likes to give his best and is a fan favourite.

Jamie Vardy (Leicester City)

Vardy’s movement is his greatest strength, he is a predatory number nine who is always looking to burst into spaces behind defences. His pace in short distances helps him to create a lot of problems for the defenders. He also poses a threat in the air, because his explosive leap and the timing of his jumps mean he can compete with far bigger central defenders. He can score from anywhere on the pitch and he is one of the best finishers in the league.
