Leicester City will be hoping to land their 200th Premier League victory when they welcome Arsenal to the King Power Stadium on Saturday for a 12:30 KO (Leicester 29/20, Draw 13/5, Arsenal 19/10 - Match Betting).
The Foxes are just one win away from hitting 200 Premier League victories and they will be feeling confident ahead of the clash against Arsenal, who have lost four of the last seven top-flight meetings against the East Midlands outfit.
Brendan Rodgers' men, who are ninth in table and only ahead of the Gunners on goal difference, are on a five-game unbeaten run heading into the contest and haven't lost at home in their previous four matches across all competitions.
A victory for Leicester today would see them win three successive league games for the first time since their opening three fixtures of 2021, and the chances of this happening have been boosted by the expected return of Jamie Vardy.
The former England international missed the EFL Cup win against Brighton because of a knee injury but he is in line to start and can be backed at 23/20 to score anytime.
However, the Foxes, who would move up to fifth with a win, are sweating over the fitness of Ricardo Pereira and Ayoze Perez, who are doubts due to injury and illness respectively.
As for Arsenal, they are unbeaten in six Premier League matches, having lost their opening three games this season by an aggregate score of 9-0, and Mikel Arteta appears to be turning things around.
The Gunners have also lost just two of their past 11 league games on the road, winning six and drawing the other three, although they have only scored one goal in their four away league games so far this season.
Defender Ben White is yet to train after being forced off against Leeds United on Tuesday due to illness and is expected to miss the clash, while Martin Odegaard and Kieran Tierney both missed that EFL Cup win through injury and are doubts.
Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette has scored 10 goals in his last 13 away league starts and he can be backed at 7/4 to find the back of the net anytime, while he is 4/1 to bag the first or last goal of the game.
