Our prediction for the match Leicester City vs Arsenal
“The Gunners” returned to the Champions League last season, and were knocked out in the play-offs by a traditionally unpleasant opponent, Bayern. At the same time, they remained the second force in England, lagging behind Manchester City by just a couple of points in the title race. “The Foxes”, having fallen to the Championship, managed to win 1st place there early.
The higher mentioned result was secured by Maresca, but Enzo had already left for Chelsea in the summer. His successors, in fact, were disappointing. Cooper was replaced already at the end of autumn, but van Nistelrooy, having started with a victory over West Ham and a draw in the struggle with Brighton in early December, then beat crisis opponent, Tottenham, only at the end of last month. That success was followed by a 0-4 defeat made by Everton. Speaking about the cup confrontation with Manchester United, the club fought, scored, but lost by a small margin. Arteta’s footballers confidently overcame the group stage of the Champions League, taking 6 victories and advancing directly to the 1/8 finals. As for the League Cup, the team lost in both semi-final matches with Newcastle without scoring a single goal. There were also misfires in the Premier League – the team did not win the games against Brighton and Aston Villa already in January. Moreover, it lost the cup meeting in the majority to Manchester United on penalties. On the other hand, the club made a crushing 5-1 result in the struggle with Manchester City.
Arteta’s footballers score 2.04 goals per game, while conceding less than 1 in return – 0.92. Their opponents, who are fighting for survival, score slightly less than 1 goal per match, but they concede twice as many – 2.21.
