Arsenal make the trip to the King Power Stadium to play against Leicester City on Saturday afternoon.
The Gunners are second in the Premier League table, seven points away from league leaders Liverpool, who dropped points midweek against Everton.
Mikel Arteta will have a tough choice to make however, as he will be without striker Kai Havertz, who suffered a season-ending hamstring injury this week.
The injury to Havertz means that Arteta will likely have to play one of Ethan Nwaneri, Raheem Sterling or Leandro Trossard up front. He hinted on Friday morning that it could be the latter who he picks.
The Gunners will also be without Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus, who are all injured. But defender Ben White is set to return which is a boost. Click here to see our predicted XI for Arteta’s side on Saturday.
They face a Leicester City side who lost 2-1 to Manchester United in their last match, which was an FA Cup tie. The Foxes sit 18th in the Premier League table, two points off safety.
Arsenal backed to win despite injury crisis
The Gunners have a depleted squad, with Arteta having to make some tough lineup decisions ahead of the game at Saturday lunchtime. But they have still been made favourites to win by the bookmakers.
According to Oddschecker, Arsenal are backed at odds of 1/3 to win the game against Leicester, giving them a hefty 75% chance to win.
