Can a game be ‘must win’ when it’s only the second of the season?
Probably not, but at times this week it has felt like this one is.
Both Arsenal and Leicester are looking to put their first points of the season on the board and while Arsenal will know they got the better of the Foxes last season, half the Leicester squad has a point to prove to Arsenal about why they chose to stay.
With Joel Campbell gone and a host of injuries to contend with as well players at risk of Euro-generated spontaneous combustion, here’s how we’re lining up today:
Leicester: Schmeichel, Simpson, Huth, Morgan, Fuchs, Mahrez, Drinkwater, Mendy, Albrighton, Okazaki, Vardy
Subs: Hernandez, Musa, King, Amartey, Zieler, Gray, Ulloa
Arsenal: Cech, Bellerin, Holding, Kos, Monreal, Xhaka, Le Coq, Walcott, Cazorla, Ox, Alexis
Subs: Ospina, Gibbs, Wilshere, Giroud, Ozil, Chambers, Elneny
