Arsenal will look to lift themselves up off the Premier League canvas when they entertain Leicester City at the Emirates on Saturday afternoon.
Mikel Arteta’s side conceded a gut-wrenching equaliser in the dying embers of the game at Man City last Sunday after playing the entire second half with 10 men.
That stalemate, which brought up my corner bet, saw the Gunners end the weekend in fourth spot and two points behind Pep Guardiola’s pacesetters.
After brushing aside Bolton 5-1 in midweek to progress to the fourth round of the EFL Cup, Arsenal will look to get back up and running in the Premier League when Leicester come calling.
The Foxes have had a solid if unspectacular return to the top-flight to date, losing two and drawing three of their opening five games of the campaign, the most recent of which was a 1-1 draw with Everton.
Steve Cooper’s side avoided a shock early exit from the EFL Cup in midweek by squeaking their way past English League Two outfit Walsall via a penalty shootout.
How the bookies view it: Light work for the Londoners
Unsurprisingly, Arsenal are heavy 2/13 favourites on Betano to return to winning ways in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
A fourth stalemate of the season involving Leicester is as big as 6/1 (Betano) while a Foxes triumph is trading at a whopping 14/1 (Betano).
Head to head: Gunners going for six in a row
Arsenal have fared well in this fixture in recent years, claiming top honours from each of the last five meetings between the pair.
Leicester’s last victory against Arsenal was a 1-0 win at an empty Emirates in October 2020, with Jamie Vardy grabbing the only goal of the game.
Players to watch: Saka to set up another?
Bukayo Saka has provided an assist in each of his five Premier League appearances for Arsenal this season. A repeat here can be backed at 13/89 on Bet 365.
Leicester defender Wout Faes has committed a minimum of one foul in each of his five Premier League outings this season so far, making him a great value option to fall foul of the referee just once at the Emirates at 8/11 with Unibet.
Predicted line-ups
Arsenal remain without captain Martin Odegaard but Leandro Trossard will return from suspension after sitting out the midweek mauling of Bolton.
Patson Daka suffered an ankle injury during pre-season and is not expected back any time soon following surgery.
Arsenal: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Partey, Rice; Saka, Trossard, Martinelli; Havertz
Leicester: Hermansen; Justin, Faes, Okoli, Kristiansen; Skipp, Winks, Ndidi; Ayew, Mavididi, Vardy.
Anything else catch the eye?
Arsenal are too short to support at the above-mentioned odds but pairing up a home win with Leicester's Victor Kristiansen to commit a foul will bring about an appetising 5/6 (UniBet) Bet Builder.
The Danish left-back gave away no fewer than three free-kicks against Everton last weekend, and he also got on the wrong side of the referee twice away at Fulham last month.
What’s more, Kristiansen will likely be up against the aforementioned Saka on Saturday afternoon, who has been fouled nine times across his five top-flight outings this term to date.
