What is the form of Leicester compared to Arsenal?
Leicester is without a win in their last game, but the Foxes have fared well recently in the Premier League. Since taking over the club, Brendan Rodgers has suffered only two defeats and one was at the hands of Watford in his debut game. His side went on a four-game winning streak before losing to Newcastle and drawing with West Ham.
As for Arsenal, they head into this tie on the back of consecutive defeats. First, they lost 3-2 at home to Crystal Palace before being humbled 3-1 at Wolves. This has handed their top-four hopes a severe dent. This means the Gunners have lost half of their last six games in all competitions.
Leicester vs Arsenal head-to-head record
The head-to-head record understandably favors the Emirates Stadium side but their last two visits to the King Power Stadium did not end well. Last season saw them lose 3-1 and a goalless draw preceded that in the season before.
Games played: 140
Leicester wins: 30
Arsenal wins: 66
Draws: 44
Who is injured/suspended for Leicester vs Arsenal?
Daniel Amartey is out for this game due to an ankle injury. Elsewhere, Wes Morgan should be back in the squad, while Jamie Vardy is gearing up to face a team he has scored against many times before.
Meanwhile, Emery will be without the influential Aaron Ramsey who remains on the sidelines with a thigh injury. Pierre-Emerick is expected back, and Mustafi as well despite his horror show against Crystal Palace.
Key talking point - Leicester vs Arsenal: a final blow to the Gunners' top-four hopes?
Not too long ago, Arsenal looked like they would finish ahead of Tottenham in the standings. However, after three defeats in their last four games, their hopes of finishing in the top four are under heavy threat.
The loss at Everton was embarrassing; the back-to-back defeats against Palace and Wolves were embarrassing. However, there is still hope for the north London side.
Emery's men are just a point behind Chelsea, who plays Man United this weekend. Should the Blues stumble and Arsenal win, the Gunners would be on their way to a Champions League spot. However, another away loss for Aubameyang and Co. could spell the end for their hopes, given that Sarri's men could increase their lead or Solskjaer's outfit could leapfrog them.
