Arsenal will play their penultimate game of the season in the Premier League against Leicester City on Wednesday. Arsenal have failed to collect any away point from the fixtures in the Premier League in 2018 till date. They will be desperate to get the first away win against Leicester City on Wednesday to finish the season with a high note. They will be confident enough in this match after winning against Burnley with an emphatic margin of 5-0. It was a very emotional day for Arsene Wenger who had managed the Gunners for the last time at the Emirates.
On the other hand, Leicester City will also wish to get a win the match against the Gunners. They have lost 4 matches in the last 5 fixtures in the Premier League this season and only managed to get a 0-0 draw against the Saints. They will also try to get back on track and finish in the top ten in the Premier League.
When and Where?
The match will be hosted by Leicester City at King Power Stadium on 9th May, 16:30 BST.
Team News :
The combination of Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre Emerick Aubameyang at the upfront of the field is working well for the Gunners in the last lap of the season. They will surely again start together against Leicester City to keep their good form. The pair of Konstantinos Mavropanos and Calum Chambers have kept a clean sheet against Burnley. So, they will surely get a chance against Leicester City as well. Nacho Monreal might come in the starting XI in place of Sead Kolasinac.
On the other hand, Claude Puel’s Leicester City have a lot of injury problems in the closing stage of the season. Wilfred Ndidi, Kasper Schmeichel, Shinji Okazaki and Matthew James will be out of contention to play against the Gunners in this match due to injury problems. Marc Albrighton will also serve the suspension as he has been shown a red card against Crystal Palace one match ago. So, it is going to be difficult for Puel to field the strongest XI in this match.
