Sitting in 18th place, one point behind Wolves, the Foxes run out of time to escape the dreaded drop. However, their upcoming fixture against an in-form Arsenal side is far from ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The stats paint a grim picture for Leicester. They have lost their last six league meetings with Arsenal, and their home form is nothing short of disastrous. A shocking run of four consecutive league defeats at King Power Stadium without scoring means they risk becoming only the fourth team in top-flight history to lose five home games without finding the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leicester has struggled against top sides all season, losing ten of their 11 league matches against teams that started the round in ninth or higher. However, there is a silver lining\u2014they scored in seven of those losses. That glimmer of an attacking threat could be their only hope of securing an upset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Arsenal\u2019s Unstoppable Momentum<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For Mikel Arteta\u2019s Arsenal, the situation is entirely different. The Gunners are flying high, unbeaten in their last 14 Premier League outings (W9, D5). Their form is reminiscent of the Ars\u00e8ne Wenger era, and with no FA Cup action last weekend, they\u2019ve had extra time to recharge after their Carabao Cup semi-final disappointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite their 2-0 defeat to Newcastle in their last match, Arsenal had an impressive nine-game unbeaten run away from home before that (W6, D3). Interestingly, they only managed one clean sheet in that stretch, showing that while their attack is firing, their defense still has vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a dominant record against struggling teams, Arsenal will feel confident heading into this encounter. They have won 21 of their last 25 Premier League games against sides in the relegation zone (D3, L1). Given Leicester\u2019s defensive struggles, the Gunners will likely be licking their lips at the prospect of another three points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Players to Watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Jamie Vardy (Leicester City):<\/strong> The veteran striker has an excellent record against Arsenal, scoring 11 times in the Premier League against the Gunners. Only Harry Kane and Wayne Rooney have found the net against them more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Martin \u00d8degaard (Arsenal):<\/strong> The Norwegian playmaker scored Arsenal\u2019s first goal in their last Premier League match and netted away from home on matchday 25 last season. Can he repeat that trick here?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"Leicester City vs. Arsenal: Can the Foxes Stun the Gunners?\" class=\"wp-image-9040\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-696x696.png 696w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957-1068x1068.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/20250214-101957.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prediction &amp; Betting Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Leicester&#8217;s struggles make it hard to see them pulling off an upset.
