The Gunners are seven points below league leaders Liverpool.

Leicester City are all set to host Arsenal on matchday 25 of the Premier League 2024-25 edition. The Foxes are in the relegation zone as they have only been able to bag four wins in their 24 league matches. The Gunners are sitting in the second spot and will be looking for a three-pointer here. This will help them close their gap for the top spot.

Leicester City have faced defeats in their previous two fixtures. First, they were dominated by Everton in the Premier League and later were knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester United. Because of their lacklustre performances, the Foxes are not having the best of the seasons. Their league clash against Arsenal is surely going to be a tough affair even at home.

Arsenal will be somewhat confident because of their current form in the league. They secured a dominating 5-1 win over the Premier League defending champions in their previous league match. But their Carabao Cup run came to an end as they faced a defeat against Newcastle United in the semi-final second leg.

Kick Off:

Location: Leicester, England

Stadium: King Power Stadium

Date: Saturday, February 15

Kick-off Time: 18:00 IST / 12:30 GMT / 07:30 ET / 04:30 PT

Referee: Samuel Barrott

VAR: In use

Form:

Leicester City: L-L-W-L-L

Arsenal: W-W-W-W-L

Players to Watch

Jordan Ayew (Leicester City)

In the absence of Jamie Vardy, Jordan Ayew will have to step up so that he can lead his side to a win. He has only been able to score four goals in 21 league matches for the Foxes. Ayew has not been in the best form but if he finds spaces in the opponent’s defence then he might be able to score a goal or two.

Martin Odegaard (Arsenal)

The Norweigan midfielder leads the Gunners while taking control of the midfield. Martin Odegaard is very capable of scoring goals while being a midfielder. In the absence of Arsenal’s top players, Odegaard and Arsenal will be under pressure. This will be a perfect time for the midfielder to drop a top performance in their upcoming league clash.

Match Facts
