Leicester City form and stats

Leicester City have played 11 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-3-5 (wins-draws-losses).

Leicester faced defeat in their previous match, away at Manchester United (0-3). The first defeat after going undefeated through three league rounds. Defender Souttar got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.04/10. Souttar hit one key pass and won 5 of 9 duels.

Before that game, the 4-1 home victory against Tottenham Hotspur.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Blackburn Rovers are coming to town in three days.

The Leicester City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 11 matches. Leicester City's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Arsenal form and stats

Arsenal have an excellent away record in the Premier League so far with 9-1-2 from 12 games.

Arsenal play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-2 victory visiting Aston Villa (placed 11th). Those three points felt nice as this club had gone three league rounds without victory. As you can tell from the result, the match against Aston Villa was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today? Ødegaard got a match rating of 8.13 in that game, top player of the team. Ødegaard served one assist, hit seven key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 52 successful passes (of 57 total).

A 1-3 loss hosting Manchester City before that.

A new game in only four days for Arsenal, the Premier League home match versus Everton. Busy days.

It's not easy to score on Arsenal as they have only conceded 9 goals from these away games.
