Team News

Arsenal
Arsene Wenger may tinker with the side that was taken all the way to extra-time by Manchester City in their FA Cup semi-final win on Sunday.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is a slight doubt after picking up a minor injury at Wembley at the weekend and will require assessment. This could earn Hector Bellerin a recall to the starting XI after dropping to the bench in recent matches. Kieran Gibbs could also replace Nacho Monreal on the other flank. wink
A thigh injury is expected to keep Shkodran Mustafi out once again, which will benefit Rob Holding with another chance to impress here. cheesy
Francis Coquelin will also be looking for minutes in midfield against Leicester, while Danny Welbeck could return to the side at the expense of Olivier Giroud. cheesy

Leicester
Craig Shakespeare will hope to have Wes Morgan available again after he was forced off in the second leg of their Champions League meeting against Atletico Madrid with a hamstring problem nearly 10 days ago. smiley
Islam Slimani has been ruled out for the trip to London with a groin injury, while the Leicester manager has confirmed Nampalys Mendy will miss the remainder of the season after undergoing ankle surgery. sad

Prediction

Arsenal will be confident ahead of the reception of the reigning Premier League champions after overcoming Manchester City to reach the FA Cup final at the weekend. However, they were taken to extra-time and there will be some tired legs towards the end of this match.

Leicester, by contrast, will almost have had 10 days rest by the time this match starts and will be looking to continue their league resurgence under Craig Shakespeare on Wednesday. The Foxes have won five of their last seven league matches but are winless in their last two, although they coincided with their Champions League quarter-final against Atletico Madrid.

The Gunners have won each of their last three home matches against Leicester 2-1 and a repeat scoreline could be on the cards once again for Arsene Wenger's men as they look to continue their good run of results.
