Arsenal host Leicester City in their first home fixture of the 2022/23 Premier League season with Mikel Arteta's side aiming to pick up six points from a possible six.

The Gunners kicked off their campaign with a 2-0 away win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. This followed an encouraging preseason for the north London side with hopes of a strong 2022/23 season high at the Emirates Stadium.

Leicester City, however, are still searching for their first victory of the new season after drawing 2-2 at home to Brentford on the opening weekend. The Foxes let a 2-0 lead slip at the King Power Stadium.

Last season saw Arsenal claim 2-0 wins home and away against Leicester in the Premier League and the Gunners will be targeting another victory over the visitors to north London.

Arsenal vs. Leicester City lineups

The Gunners' squad is getting healthier with the returns of Takehiro Tomiyasu and Emile Smith Rowe on the bench. Summer signing Fabio Vieira is back in training, but not on the matchday squad list.

Reiss Nelson is the only player confirmed to miss out due to injury. Players who are likely to be on their way to new clubs — right back Hector Bellerin and goalkeeper Alex Runarsson — are out of the squad entirely. 

Arsenal starting lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): 1-Aaron Ramsdale (GK) — 4-Ben White, 12-William Saliba, 6-Gabriel, 35-Oleksandr Zinchenko — 5-Thomas Partey, 34-Granit Xhaka — 7-Bukayo Saka, 8-Martin Odegaard, 11-Gabriel Martinelli — 9-Gabriel Jesus

Arsenal subs (9): 30-Matt Turner, 18-Takehiro Tomiyasu, 16-Rob Holding, 3-Kieran Tierney, 25-Mohamed Elneny, 23-Albert Sambi Lokonga, 10-Emile Smith Rowe, 19-Nicolas Pepe, 14-Eddie Nketiah.

Ricardo Pereira (Achilles), Harvey Barnes (knee), and Ryan Bertrand (knee) are still unavailable for the Foxes, but manager Brendan Rodgers has a deep bench at his disposal. He will field Youri Tielemans after all, making for a bit of an awkward situation given the multiple transfer reports.

Leicester City starting lineup (5-3-2, right to left): 1-Danny Ward (GK) — 27-Timothy Castagne, 3-Wesley Fofana, 6-Jonny Evans, 18-Daniel Amartey, 2-James Justin — 8-Youri Tielemans, 25-Wilfred Ndidi, 22-Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall — 10-James Maddison, 9-Jamie Vardy

Leicester City subs (9): 31-Daniel Iversen (GK), 4-Caglar Soyuncu, 33-Luke Thomas, 24-Nampalys Mendy, 11-Marc Albrighton, 26-Dennis Praet, 17-Ayoze Perez, 14-Kelechi Iheanacho, 20-Patson Daka.

Arsenal vs. Leicester City betting odds

Arsenal start this Premier League fixture as favourites. The goalscoring record of both teams means goals should be witnessed at the Emirates Stadium with Arsenal and Leicester City scoring twice on opening weekend.

Jesus will be a threat in the final third for the Gunners while Maddison is central to the creativity of the Leicester City frontline. Of course, it's not certain the England international will start for the Foxes given the transfer speculation around him at the moment.
