EPL WK 1: ARSENAL v LEICESTER CITY PREVIEW/PREDICTION.


STATS: Leicester’s three opening-day Premier League games since their promotion have produced 13 goals.
In their 63 meetings, Arsenal have beaten Leicester 38 times, with the foxes having registered only 6 wins.
This fixture has produced 19 draws.

The Gunners 146 goals against Leicester's 60 shows that this fixture produces some goals.

ANALYSIS: Arsenal lost their Premier League opener last season when they lost 4-3 at home to Liverpool.
The Gunners failed to keep a clean sheet in all their pre-season games and also the Community Shield against Chelsea.
I don't expect them to entirely shut out the firepower of the foxes who have added Nigerian striker Kelechi Iheanacho to their ranks.

PREDICTION: OVER 2.5; with both teams likely to score.
If there is going to be a winner in this game, I think it should be Arsenal.

DATE: 11.08.2017.

KICKOFF: 19:45

VENUE: EMIRATES STADIUM.
