Command Analysis

Leicester City

Current form
Leicester have been fighting for survival throughout the season, but there has not been much progress in the game or the results. The appearance of Ruud van Nistelrooy on the coaching bridge at the race did not have a positive effect. In the round before last, the Foxes won 2-1 on the road over Tottenham and left the 18th place in the red zone. However, the joy was short-lived, in the next match there was a defeat from Everton away with a crushing score of 0:4. At the same time, Wolverhampton, the main competitor in the fight for survival, won their match, Leicester again found themselves on the 18th line, two points behind Wolves. At the same time, Ipswich is one point behind.
Overall, the situation for Ruud van Nistelrooy's team is not the most rosy – eight defeats in the last nine matches. The Foxes scored their last victory in the Premier League on December 3 last year, when they beat West Ham 3-1. At King Power, the team currently has an open series of four defeats in a row with a total score of 0:9. Obvious problems in the offensive line, which rarely manifests itself. The other day, Manchester United failed to qualify for the 1/16 finals of the FA Cup, losing 1-2.
Leicester have a match ahead against a difficult and uncomfortable opponent. In the previous six head-to-head matches, there were defeats against Arsenal, and in five cases with a two-goal difference.
Disqualifications and injuries
Fatawu, Pereira and Souttar will not play due to injuries. The appearance of Christiansen, Vestergaard and Vardy is questionable.

Approximate composition: Hermansen – Justin, Fas, Okoli, Thomas– Ndidi, Soumare–Ayou, El Hannous, De Cordova-Raid–Daka.

Arsenal

Current form
Arsenal is the main and, perhaps, the only pursuer of Liverpool. The Merseysiders had a rescheduled match with Everton last week, and went their separate ways. 1:1. Now their gap from the Gunners is seven points. In fact, Mikel Arteta's team has no chance of misfires, but the gap is still quite decent. Plus, Nottingham Forest is three points behind.
In the last two rounds, the Londoners defeated Wolverhampton on the road with a score of 1-0 and Manchester City at home with a crushing score of 5:1. In the game with the "townspeople" we managed to realize almost all the created moments.
After a confident victory over Manchester City, an unsuccessful return match with Newcastle in the semi–finals of the League Cup followed - a 0:2 defeat and relegation from the tournament. Now Arsenal can fully concentrate on the Champions League, where they reached the 1/8 finals at once, and on the Premier League. It will not be easy to catch up with Liverpool, given that it is not the first season that the Gunners have been losing key players due to injuries in the second half of the season. This time, Havertz and Martinelli were added to the players already in the infirmary. In fact, there is not a single central striker left at the moment.
Disqualifications and injuries
White, Tomiyasu, Saka, Jesus, Havertz and Martinelli are injured and will not play today.
Interesting betting trends

Tip and bets
Arsenal have significant personnel losses in attack, but it is unlikely that this will prevent them from scoring three points today. Nevertheless, the current Leicester is not ready to compete even with the non-core squad of the Gunners, plus the hosts themselves also have a lot of problems with the squad. The Foxes are having a lot of trouble creating and implementing dangerous moments, and the Londoners are looking very convincing on the defensive, and they have conceded only 12 goals in 12 Premier League matches on the road. In the previous six face-to-face matches, Arsenal beat Leicester, and in five cases with a difference of more than one goal, which we are waiting for today.
Our forecast is that Arsenal will win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) by a factor of 2.00
Bet on the total
Leicester have had problems attacking throughout the season, and even the home field factor doesn't help in this regard – only 11 goals in 12 matches at King Power. In the four previous lost matches on their own field, the Foxes did not hit the opponents' goal. There is a high probability that they will remain without scoring goals today.
The second bet is that Leicester will not score with a coefficient of 1.95
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
Arsenal had won in six previous head-to-head matches, and in five cases they had won by exactly two goals. We are waiting for the same outcome today and recommend the high-odds betting option.
Prediction – Arsenal win with a two-goal advantage with a coefficient of 4.00
