Arsenal Leicester City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be busy, since both teams usually score many goals in situations similar to the match this Monday. Arsenal has the second best attack of the competition and has scored at least 2 goals in the last 3 games, while Leicester often play to the attack and create several goal opportunities in the away matches, having scored 2 goals in the last 3 away games. Given these factors, we believe in an open game, with good offensive volume from both sides, and both Arsenal and Leicester City should score goals.

Analysis Arsenal

The home team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 6 wins and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Watford, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in an away match against Fulham, by (1‑5). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at their stadium. For the league, Arsenal won 9 points out of 12 possible points, after 3 wins and 1 loss in the last 4 home matches.

They have won the last 6 matches for this competition. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 6 of the last 8 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 8 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 59 of the last 65 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals.

After 2 defeats in the first 2 rounds, Arsenal is rising a lot from income, coming in excellent sequence of 6 consecutive wins and is looking for another victory in the fight for the first place, being only 2 points behind the leader. The team is characterized by a reasonable defensive system that has conceded 10 goals, being the seventh less leaked of the competition and its great strength is the attack, since it scored 19 goals, being the second most positive of the competition, having even scored 5 goals away from home in the last round. Considering the home matches, Arsenal comes from 3 consecutive victories where it scored 7 goals and suffered only 1, evidencing the enormous strength it has in the home games. For the clash against Leicester City, coach Unai Emery should count again on striker Aubameyang, the team's top scorer in the Premier League.

Confirmed Lineup: Bernd Leno, Bellerín, Stephan Lichtsteiner, Shkodran Mustafi, Rob Holding, Granit Xhaka, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Lucas Torreira, Mesut Özil, Alexandre Lacazette, Alex Iwobi.
Coach: M. Arteta.

Analysis Leicester

The away team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 12 points won, after 4 wins and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Newcastle United, by (0‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Everton, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses in away matches, with 31 goals scored and 30 conceded; against 4 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 16 conceded. In the last 4 away league matches Leicester City has a record of 2 wins and 2 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 12 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 8 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 8 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 2 of the last 8 matches for the Premier League, they have reached half‑time in front in all of those 2 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 8 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times but have turned the score around in 2. In the last 6 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 7 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Leicester City has been acting rather unevenly in the Premier League and comes to this round trying to recover from the home defeat in the last game to try to get closer to the qualifying zone for next season's European competition. The team has only average performance both offensively and defensively, having scored 14 goals, being the seventh best attack of the competition, and conceded 12 goals, having the eighth defense less leaked, needing to improve in both to fight higher in the standings. Considering the away matches Leicester City won 2 of the last 3 matches and scored 2 goals in three games, being a team that looks for the result even away from home and not for nothing is the fifth team that scored the most goals in the away matches. For the difficult game against Arsenal, coach Claude Puel will not be able to count on defender Wes Morgan, due to suspension.

Confirmed Lineup: Kasper Schmeichel, Ben Chilwell, Jonny Evans, Harry Maguire, Ricardo Pereira, Daniel Amartey, Wilfred Ndidi, Nampalys Mendy, James Maddison, Jamie Vardy, Kelechi Iheanacho.
Coach: B. Rodgers.
