Arsenal vs Leicester Prediction 28 Sep 2024

⚽ Premier League - Round 6 Preview

📅 28 Sep 2024

⏰ 15:00 GMT +1

🏟 Emirates Stadium (London)

Arsenal came agonizingly close to defeating Manchester City last weekend, only to concede a last-minute equalizer in a dramatic 2-2 draw. Playing with ten men for most of the match, they still managed to maintain their unbeaten start to the Premier League season (W3, D2). Despite a growing injury list, Arsenal will look to continue their strong home form, having won three of their last five home league matches without conceding while scoring at least two goals. Historically, the Gunners have dominated Leicester at home, losing only once in this fixture since 1973 (W22, D7).

Leicester, on the other hand, remain winless in the league since their return to the Premier League (D3, L2). Despite earning draws against Crystal Palace (2-2) and Everton (1-1), frustration is building among fans, with manager Steve Cooper under pressure. The Foxes’ confidence won’t have been boosted by needing penalties to get past League Two side Walsall in the EFL Cup earlier this week. Additionally, Leicester have struggled in London, conceding twice on both of their trips to the capital this season (D1, L1), and they are still searching for their first Premier League away win since February 2023 (D4, L6).
