#3 Aubameyang-Lacazette duo to cause problems for Leicester City

Arsenal v Aston Villa - Premier League

After a poor start to the campaign, Arsenal forwards Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette have shown signs of promise in their last few matches. It goes without saying that these two forwards are key to the Gunners' goalscoring and their good form will come as a relief for Arteta.

Aubameyang has been slowly getting back to his very best, with Lacazette complimenting him perfectly in the final third. Aubemeyang has bagged seven goals and two assists so far in all competitions, while Lacazette has three goals and one assist in his kitty.

Leicester City's defensive woes will be a boost for both forwards to keep up their good form. Aubameyang and Lacazette are known to work in perfect sync and they will be hoping to pile on the misery for Leicester.

#2 Jamie Vardy to find the net against Arsenal

Leicester City v Manchester United - Premier League

In addition to Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, Leicester City's talisman Jamie Vardy has been one of the best forwards in the English top flight so far. The sharpshooter has been in explosive form, finding the net in almost every game.

Vardy is one of the contenders for the Premier League's Golden Boot award with just Mo Salah ahead of him. In nine Premier League games so far, the 34-year-old has scored seven goals and provided one assist.

For his exploits, Vardy has been one of the Premier League's best goalscorers in recent times. The centre-forward is a terrific finisher and rarely misses an opportunity to showcase his prowess in the final third.

Despite not getting any younger, Vardy is showing no signs of slowing down and remains the main man in Leicester City's attack. Vardy is no doubt a threat to be reckoned with. Considering his form, he is likely to score a goal or two against Arsenal.

#1 Arsenal to grind a win in a closely fought contest

Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League

Leicester City are slowly finding their rhythm and have showcased their prowess with some powerful displays in the last few weeks. Despite key absentees, the Foxes have been prolific in front of goal and their last few good performances will only bolster their confidence.

Arsenal have also looked comfortable under Mikel Arteta's 4-4-2 tactical setup. They have found their balance and will be relishing their trip to Leicester in search of all three points.

As evident, there is not much difference between the two teams on paper. However, Arsenal have been the more consistent side of late, grinding out victories even under dire circumstances.

Although an away win will be a tough task for the Gunners, our guess is that they will edge a win in a thrilling contest.
