Arsenal Vs Leicester City (2 - 1) On 10th February 2015 by Omooba77: 4:19pm On Feb 07, 2015 |
Arsenal will try to redeem its image after loosing 1-2to Tottenham against Leicester on Tuesday night in the continuation of EPL. TEAM NEWS Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez is available after recovering from a hamstring problem.Jack Wilshere remains out despite returning to training after an ankle injury, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is two weeks away from a comeback.Leicester defender Robert Huth has completed a two-game ban and could make his debut.Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and striker Chris Wood remain out with respective foot and ankle problems. MATCH PREVIEW There's an old journalism training mantra which came to mind on Sunday night - it says that there's no value in being first with a story if the story is wrong. Lawro's prediction "Whatever has happened at Leicester, it has completely undermined their manager Nigel Pearson. The Foxes insist they have not sacked him, but you are almost waiting for the inevitable now. His future does not look too good."Predictions: Lawro v Arsenal Ladies star Kelly SmithAccording to social media that evening, Nigel Pearson had been sacked by Leicester. He hadn't; sometimes truth and twitter are very distant cousins indeed.That's not to say that Pearson couldn't do with the lift that an unexpected three points on their first-ever trip to the Emirates would give them.Leicester are bottom and have been bottom at the end of each of the last 12 rounds of Premier League fixtures from which they've taken only seven points.Back in August when Arsenal drew at the King Power Stadium, Foxes' optimism was high.Leonardo Ulloa seemed to have settled immediately to the demands of being a top-flight striker, Riyad Mahrez and Jeffrey Schlupp were offering real threat on the flanks, and there was a momentum about them which carried them to seventh place by the time they beat Manchester United in September.Play mediaNigel Pearson: Pundits on 'bizarre' clash with James McArthurPearson's strange altercation with James McArthur on Saturday has only focused the spotlight more sharply on him and his club.Arsene Wenger will be determined to show no mercy to Leicester - the defeat at Spurs must have been stingingly painful to take, and brought a run of five consecutive victories to a juddering halt.Suddenly team selection and transfer policy are back on the lips of Gunners' fans who long for a return to the standards of the good old days when Leicester provided the final opposition for Arsenal's Invincibles in 2003-04.From where they are now, Arsenal need a decent unbeaten run just to get into the top four.If I had to get off the fence, I'd say they'll manage that again, but it's going to be close. MATCH FACTS Head-to-headLeicester are winless in 16 games against Arsenal (D6, L10) since beating them in their first Premier League meeting at Filbert Street in November 1994.The Foxes have lost their last seven league games away to the Gunners.Arsene Wenger has never lost a Premier League game against Leicester, but he was in charge when the Gunners were beaten in an FA Cup fourth round penalty shoot-out in 2000.Arsenal's last home match against Leicester was their 38th and final game of the 2003-04 league season. A 2-1 win ensured the Gunners' "Invincibles" ended the campaign unbeaten.ArsenalThe Gunners have won their last five Premier League home games (seven in all competitions).The last time they won six successive top-flight matches at the Emirates was between September and December 2013.Defeat at Spurs ended a run of three straight league wins.Arsenal have scored a league-high 26 goals at home this season.They are unbeaten against opposition from the bottom half of the table this season (W8, D3).Leicester CityThe Foxes have lost eight of their last 10 away league games (W1, D1).Their tally of four clean sheets this season is the lowest in the division, along with QPR.Only Aston Villa have scored fewer than Leicester's 21 goals and failed to score more often than the 11 matches by the Foxes. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/31106369 A
