Arsenal vs Leicester

Saturday 13th August, 3pm

Emirates Stadium, London

Arsenal vs Leicester Football Preview

Arsenal came flying out the blocks on the opening day of the season, dispatching a very promising Crystal Palace team relatively comfortably. The minimum aim must be Champions League football for the Gunners, and they certainly look primed to go after it.

William Saliba impressed on his return to English football and new signings Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus showed their worth. Mikel Arteta has a clear vision, and he looks to be assembling a group of individuals capable of fulfilling his philosophies. Arsenal’s first home game of the 2022/23 campaign sees them welcome a tricky Leicester side.

Brendan Rodgers’ Foxes are one of the hardest teams in the league to gage. They could turn up one week and rip you to shreds, but look completely devoid of any real plan the next. When you factor in their lack of success in North London over the years, Arsenal will be fully expected to cruise to victory.

In 16 Premier League home games against Leicester, Arsenal have won 13 and lost just once. What’s more, they will be full of confidence heading into this weekend’s fixture, whilst any momentum the visitors were building was quickly demolished when they saw a 2-0 lead collapse against Brentford. There’s no doubt there is talent in this Leicester side, but there’s a buzz around the Emirates, and the Gunners will be raring to go.

Arsenal vs Leicester Betting Tips

*Odds correct at the time of publication and subject to change.

Arsenal win and both to score – 9/5

The Gunners look in great shape to go on and win this game, but we’re still not filled with confidence by them defensively. Jamie Vardy will wreak havoc as usual, but the hosts will be expected to come out on top.

Arsenal win 3-1 – 17/2

We’re predicting a fairly routine victory in the second game of the season. There’s a fluidity to this Arsenal side that will cause any team problems, and Leicester might just struggle to keep pace with them.

First goalscorer: Gabriel Jesus – 3/1

Arsenal have picked themselves up a real gem in Jesus. The Brazilian will thrive as Arteta’s main man, and it’s only a matter of time before he’s on the scoresheet – in front of a bouncing Emirates, it could be his time to shine.
