Arsenal vs Leicester Analysis<\/h2>\n

Leicester enters the Emirates Stadium on Sunday coming off back-to-back wins in the Premier League for only the second time all season.<\/p>\n

Arsenal meanwhile are running red-hot right now, going unbeaten across their last five matches in all and sitting in the final Champions League spot ahead of the likes of Manchester United, Tottenham and West Ham.<\/p>\n

Leicester\u2019s Underwhelming Season<\/h3>\n

Despite a bright off-season for the \u2018Foxes\u2019 last summer in which Leicester were already campaigning almost all season long in the Champions League race before falling off late, adding proven top level talent to the roster in the likes of Red Bull Salzburg\u2019s top scorer Patson Daka and French Ligue 1 title winner Boubakary Soumare, a lot of people expected Leicester to take that next step and push on into a potential challenger role in that Premier League top four.<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s been a season to forget for the Foxes so far as numerous injuries and a lack of cohesion at the back has cost them badly this year, allowing the fifth-most expected goals against in the league.<\/p>\n

Arsenal Strengthening Their Return to Champions League<\/h3>\n

With three games in-hand over the likes of chasing Manchester United and West Ham for the final Champions League spot, Arsenal are in a good place right now.<\/p>\n

Four-straight wins on the bounce now for the \u2018Gunners\u2019 has saw them make a charge up the table as they unloaded some big names in the transfer window like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Barcelona, and that has allowed Arsenal\u2019s youth contingent to take over.<\/p>\n

Bukayo Saka (20), Gabriel Martinelli (20), Emile Smith Rowe (21) and Eddie Nketiah (22) have already bagged 22 goals and 10 assists between them this season and their ability to overwhelm opposition backlines with pace has been extremely effective for Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Arsenal vs Leicester Prediction<\/h2>\n

While the price is high here on Arsenal, it is justified.<\/p>\n

Leicester is without Jamie Vardy ahead of this clash and their influential forward will be badly missed as despite back-to-back wins over recent games in the Premier League, Leicester simply haven\u2019t looked that impressive going forward.<\/p>\n

A 2.16 xG to 3.18 xG disadvantage for Leicester over their two most recent wins has highlighted their struggles and against an Arsenal side that is good at defending against set-pieces and who have the pace to expose Leicester on the opposite end, the foxes luck may well run out here.<\/p>\n

Arsenal at this price don\u2019t present a ton of value, around -200 at time of writing, but I do expect both teams to get on the scoresheet here as Leicester have failed to score in just one of their last fourteen away games across all competitions and had almost double Arsenal\u2019s expected goals tally in the reverse fixture back in October, but simply couldn\u2019t find the back of the net.<\/p>\n

That likely changes here however and while I expect Arsenal to get the victory on Sunday, Both Teams to Score – Yes at -134<\/strong> presents the better overall value in this one.<\/p>\n
