Arsenal host struggling Leicester City on Tuesday night, and there is a sense of optimism around the club, despite the humiliating defeat on Saturday. Luckily we have a chance to bounce back very quickly.
Key Leicester Player: Leandro UlloaÂ
The Argentinian forward has nine goals for Leicester this season and scored a header against Arsenal the last time the sides met. The Gunners only managed a point that day thanks to Ulloa’s brilliant header. I think he will be the main threat and focal point for Leicester’s attack.
Key Arsenal Player: Santi Cazorla
Cazorla has been in incredible form over the last few months, but against Tottenham on Saturday he looked poor. It was a rare blip in quality from the Spaniard after he found his best form from December onwards. I hope he can return to his best against Leicester and if he does, then Arsenal will tick and should have no problems winning the game. When he isn’t at his best, the Gunners often struggle to find their rhythm and control the game.

Arsenal will control the game. Unlike recent matches they will be in charge of the possession and may have to be patient in breaking down a Leicester side which is having to fight for its life. Leicester are rock bottom of the Premier League and will need to show much more quality on Tuesday than they have recently if they want any hope of picking up points from this fixture.
Prediction: Arsenal 3-0 Leicester
I think Arsenal will be too strong for Leicester, despite the setback at the weekend. The Gunners need a big response, and a I hope with the quality we have in the squad we will see that. I think Giroud, Cazorla and Walcott will score. If Sanchez starts, I think he’ll get a goal instead of Giroud/Walcott. What do you think? Let me know your predictions by commenting below.
