Leicester City Preview – Will the Foxes extend undefeated run to five?
Brendan Rodgers’ Leicester City made a slow start to their season, winning only two of their opening seven Premier League games. However, the Foxes have turned a corner of late and have fired themselves into the top half of the table.
Since back-to-back defeats to Manchester City and Brighton & Hove Albion last month, Rodgers’ boys have gone four league games unbeaten. They drew with Burnley and Crystal Palace before securing much-needed wins over Manchester United and Brentford.
Leicester are slowly but surely finding their feet this season. They have moved into ninth after collecting eight points from the last 12 on offer, and there is plenty more to come from this Leicester team. Can City seal a third successive league victory with three points on Saturday?
Arsenal Preview – Can the Gunners keep their momentum ticking?
Arsenal went into the first international break of the season at the start of September rooted to the foot of the Premier League table after opening up with three defeats. However, Mikel Arteta’s men have come to life after that humbling 5-0 loss at Manchester City on 28th August.
The Gunners are unbeaten in eight matches in all competitions, picking up six wins and drawing twice. In the Premier League, the London side have taken 14 points from the last 18 on offer. As a result, Arsenal are now just three points away from the top four.
