Arsenal needs to win this tie if they want a decent shot at the Champions League next season. They lost their last two games, and are currently in the fifth position, just below Chelsea, who occupies the last entry into Europe’s premier competition as of now.The Gunners need to make up just a single point to make things level, and considering their nearest two competitors – Manchester United and Chelsea are taking on each other, there won’t be a better opportunity to bring things under control.
It is awkward to say, but of the two teams, Leicester has lifted the Premier League crown the last. The King Power Stadium has witnessed some truly great games, and fans hope Leicester can close out their season in style.
