Leicester City may still have a spot in Europe to fight for going into the final three games of the season. In what has been a season of inconsistency, the Foxes currently occupy a spot in mid-table but assuming that Manchester City overcome Watford as expected in the FA Cup Final next month, then finishing in seventh place in the table will be enough to gain qualification to the Europa League which they are still very much capable of achieving. , watch goal first video.
59′ James Maddison sends a superb cross into the box. Youri Tielemans (Leicester) latches on to it and from close range plants a header inside the right post, leaving Bernd Leno beaten. He displayed his eye for goal there – excellent finish. The score is 1:0.
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.

Leicester vs Arsenal Match Preview
Leicester City may still have a spot in Europe to fight for going into the final three games of the season. In what has been a season of inconsistency, the Foxes currently occupy a spot in mid-table but assuming that Manchester City overcome Watford as expected in the FA Cup Final next month, then finishing in seventh place in the table will be enough to gain qualification to the Europa League which they are still very much capable of achieving.
Arsenal are one of the teams involved in a pulsating battle for a top four finish this season. As we enter the final three games of the season, only six points separate Tottenham Hotspur in third place and Manchester United down in sixth, and after a week in which every one of those four teams have dropped points, the Gunners currently occupy fifth place, one point behind Chelsea in the fourth and final Champions League qualification spot.
Having appeared to be in a commanding position a week ago, the Gunners have slipped to defeats against both Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last two matches to fall out of the top four spots but with three league games remaining – plus an upcoming Europa League semi-final against Valencia, Unai Emery will feel his side can still achieve their goal of returning to Europe’s top competition next year.
We’re backing goals in this game. 15 goals have been shared in the last three Premier League meetings between these two clubs and under Emery and Rodgers, both sides are always likely to be playing on the front foot.
Leicester have failed to score in only one of their last ten matches in the Premier League whilst Arsenal have only failed to score in one of their last 14.
There’s little value in just backing both teams to score but given how tight the bookies expect the game to be, backing the draw and both teams to score bet at 3/1 with with PaddyPower looks good to us.
