Arsenal vs Leicester Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 28th September 2024

A quick peek at the odds suggests anything but a win for Arsenal will come as a surprise when they take on Leicester at Emirates Stadium this coming Saturday in the Premier League.

The current difference in the Premier League standings between the two teams clashing at Emirates Stadium on Saturday is eight points.

Arsenal took down Leicester in their most recent meeting, and bookmakers deem another win for the home side a likely scenario on Saturday.

The Gunners scored 2.2 goals on average in their past ten matches, hitting the target 22 times. They conceded six goals, an average of 0.6 and pulled off six clean sheets.

The Foxes are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 13 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.3 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of 19 goals, and while Leicester claimed one clean sheets, they conceded an average of 1.9 goals per match.

The Gunners had a good reading on Leicester in their last two meetings, which they won by 4-2 and 1-0, respectively.

Arsenal vs Leicester Prediction

Arsenal Form

In their last three matches, Arsenal drew 0-0 with Atalanta before recording another draw with Manchester City in a 2-2 match and beat Bolton with a 5-1 scoreline. Arsenal claimed four wins in their last six Premier League matches at the Emirates Stadium. They came through these games with a record of one draw and one defeat, in which they conceded four and scored 13 goals.

Arsenal would probably consider anything lower than at least a second place finish a disappointment. The hosts have one eye on a title challenge and know a good start is imperative.

Leicester Form

In their previous three matches, Leicester drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace, 1-1 with Everton and 0-0 with Walsall. Leicester didn't manage a single away win in their last six Premier League matches, but managed three draws, while suffering three defeats. They conceded 13 and scored eight goals themselves.

Arsenal would probably consider anything lower than at least a second place finish a disappointment. The hosts have one eye on a title challenge and know a good start is imperative.

Arsenal are far too strong to let a home win slip against Leicester, but at the same time, we don't expect the visitors to get over-run. This makes us target the home win in a match with less than three goals.

Arsenal have a record of three wins, two draws and zero defeats in the Premier League this season. Leicester are yet to win this season, having played five games, in stead showing off three draws and two defeats.
