The Premier League match between Leicester City and Arsenal, scheduled for February 15, 2025, is anticipated to be a pivotal encounter for both teams. Leicester currently finds itself in the relegation zone, positioned 18th in the league standings with a dismal record of eight losses in their last nine matches. Conversely, Arsenal remains unbeaten in their last fourteen league fixtures, showcasing a formidable form that has placed them as favorites in this matchup. This disparity sets the stage for an intriguing battle where Leicester will seek to reclaim momentum while Arsenal aims to solidify their title aspirations.
An injury crisis will leave travelling Arsenal supporters feeling trepidatious ahead of their journey to the East Midlands, but the dismal form of their opponents should raise morale.
Leicester are currently sat 18th in the table as they continue to disappoint under Ruud van Nistelrooy. They have won just one of their last ten Premier League duels under the Dutchman - a comeback victory against Arsenal's north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur - and are looking increasingly likely to return to the Championship.
This game will come too soon for both Ben White and Bukayo Saka, who are stepping up their return from injury, but Gabriel Jesus, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Gabriel Martinelli and Havertz are all set to be missing for a significant period.
Leicester City possible starting lineup: Hermansen; Justin, Okoli, Faes, Thomas; Ndidi, Soumare; Decordova-Reid, El Khannouss, Ayew; Vardy
Arsenal possible starting lineup: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Lewis-Skelly; Odegaard, Partey, Rice; Nwaneri, Trossard, Sterling
Arsenal fans might not want to hear this one but the Gunners, who are unbeaten in their last 14 league games, haven’t gone longer without defeat since between December 2010 and April 2011 under Arsene Wenger, when they went 16 games unbeaten.
Arteta’s side might be missing key attacking players but up against a side with the second-worst defensive record, who have conceded 53 goals in 24 games, they should still have more than enough.
In terms of viewership options, fans can catch the live stream of the match on USA Network or via FuboTV with available free trials . While detailed predictions regarding starting lineups remain scarce due to uncertainties surrounding player fitness and injuries (Ranney, 2025), betting odds heavily favor an Arsenal victory at approximately 30/100. Given both teams' recent performances and historical trends indicating high-scoring games between them, wagering on over 2.5 goals could also be a prudent option for bettors .
