Arsenal vs Leicester City Live : Arsenal will face another crucial challenge in their bid to secure a top-four finish in the 2018-19 Premier League campaign when they visit Leicester City on Sunday. Arsenal face their third game in seven days as they look to head into Thursday's Europa League semi-final against Valencia on a high.
The Gunners will start the match in fifth place, a single point behind Chelsea. The Blues visit Manchester United later on Sunday, so Arsenal have the chance to emerge as the big winners of the weekend between those three clubs.
Their away form has been dreadful this season, however. Sky Bet (h/t Oddschecker) has handed the visitors 8-5 odds, compared to 6-4 for the Foxes and 13-5 for a draw.
Kick-off is scheduled for noon GMT (7 a.m. ET). Sky Sports (UK) and NBC (U.S.) will provide full TV coverage and live-stream options.
Arsenal limp into Sunday's clash having lost three of their last four Premier League outings, wasting several good chances to move ahead in the race for the UEFA Champions League spots in the process.
Their most recent outing was a comprehensive 3-1 defeat away to Wolverhampton Wanderers. That result meant the Gunners were unable to take advantage of Chelsea's draw against Burnley and United's loss in the derby against Manchester City, respectively.
Arsenal's pedestrian away form has been one of the main reasons why they're not currently ranked in the top four. With just six wins from 17 tries, they have the ninth-best road record in the Premier League.
The away struggles have been a talking point for some time, and manager Unai Emery was in no mood to address the issue further ahead of Sunday's match:
