Arsenal
The Gunners have been fighting for the Premier League title for two seasons now, but so far, they haven't been able to surpass Manchester City. Last weekend, Arsenal played away against the English champions and led until the 90+8th minute. However, they couldn't hold on and ended the match in a 2-2 draw, mainly due to playing the entire second half with 10 men.
Despite this, Arsenal has made a strong start to the season, although they’ve already dropped points at home. This happened against Brighton, where they again found themselves reduced to 10 men and drew 1-1. In midweek, Arsenal confidently defeated Bolton 5-1 in the League Cup.
Leicester City
The Foxes have returned to the Premier League, but so far, Leicester doesn’t seem like a team capable of avoiding a relegation battle. Currently sitting in 15th place in the standings, they have only three points from five rounds and have yet to win a match this season.
Last weekend, Leicester hosted Everton, allowing the Toffees to earn their first points of the season. Everton scored early in the first half, but Leicester managed to salvage a point with Mavididi’s 73rd-minute goal. Midweek, Leicester defeated Walsall on penalties in the League Cup.
