“Arsenal will continue to bomb forward for a goal and that plays right into the hands of the league’s best counter attacking side”. The Gunners failed to convincingly see off Bournemouth in their last game, winning 2-0 but owing plenty to keeper Petr Cech for keeping the newly-promoted side at bay.

Arsenal Manager Arsene Wenger urges game attendees not to walk out on the match against Leicester City this weekend.
“They had lost their confidence, belief, and momentum, so that’s got them back on track and a win on Sunday would get them more firmly back on track”. The manager says we must fight for every ball. “It is the kind of game we relish and look forward to”.
“I don’t have pressure and I try to take pressure away from my players, but let us see how we play”.
The England hotshot has fired the Foxes to within 13 games of Premier League glory, establishing himself as a firm fans’ favourite in the process.
“I wouldn’t like to use that as an excuse”, Wenger said. “Give me points and not words”.
Riyad Mahrez scored a fantastic goal against Manchester City on Saturday and has been outstanding ever since the opening day win against Sunderland when the Algerian netted two goals. “The pressure is about the other teams”, Rainier said. We have pressure for our little gap, Arsenal has more pressure because they have spent more money. Why is the pressure on us? Tell me why we have pressure?
We’ll find out on Sunday. “But there’s no pressure for us”.
Ranieri is determined to prevent Leicester’s successful season from being a one-off despite saying the Foxes are “having a unusual year”. The Citizens is left reeling, and it has a match with Tottenham, which is another top flight team coming to Manchester on Sunday. The same has not been true for Arsenal, who have again endured regular injury problems through the campaign.
– Leicester City have named an unchanged starting XI in their last five Premier League games – the last team to name the same starting XI in six successive PL matches was Arsenal in May 2015. Danny Welbeck, who hasn’t played since April, is also now fully fit, although his lack of match practice will keep him out of competitive action for another week.
