Match Pack: Away Fixture, Premier League, Arsenal, #ARSLEI, your exclusive preview update
Today at 10:07 AM
Leicester will face Arsenal away in one of the most difficult fixtures to see in Premier League. The fact that Arsenal do have a lot of injuries, makes it a game that could see Leicester surprise a few people.
Despite finding Leicester in the 15th spot in the table, and never been among the relegation teams so far this season, fans looks upset and not really in balance with club and manager, it looks a bit toxic at the moment, as it feels a but unfair towards the manager and especially the players trying to perform to their best ability.
If Leicester is able to get something from the game, possibly a draw, it would be massive.
Steve Cooper might be gambling on a defensive set up, playing a four five one system, and hopefully use the counterattack as the weapon to hurt Arsenal.
