Arsenal team news ahead of Leicester City meeting
Gunners achieved what was expected of him at the opening of the Premier League season. They beat Crystal Palace 2-0 in a match in which they did an outstanding job in attack and defense. The Eagles got their fair share of chances, however, Arsenal did not allow them to turn these opportunities into goals.
What is really interesting is that although there are now five substitutions allowed in the Prem, Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta made only three for the team against Crystal Palace. This, however, does not mean that he does not have a strong seat among the substitutes. On the contrary, the list of Gunners is full of enthusiastic young players who want to stand out on the field.
However, this Saturday he may have to go with all five subs because his team is facing a significant opponent and needs to be tougher.
Leicester City team news ahead of Arsenal clash
The Foxes did not perform at the desired level in the first round, but the odds of winning against them in the second round seem very long. After all, they go to a really well-performing team, with a couple of players who were there even during the Premier League winning season.
However, they do not have a great history with Arsenal. In fact, we've seen them lose all three of their previous games against Arsenal, as they've only scored one goal along the way while conceding seven. When it comes to their performance on the ground against Arsenal, it's even worse. They have won just one game in north London since 1995.
