Both Leicester City and Arsenal will be desperate to come away from their Premier League fixture on Sunday with all three points.

With a win at the King Power Stadium, Leicester could move into second place while Arsenal could leapfrog Tottenham.

Despite a 2-1 win at Villa Park in their last league outing, Leicester crashed out of the Europa League in midweek after losing 2-0 to Slavia Prague.

Meanwhile, the Gunners dramatically booked their place in the last 16 of the tournament as they defeated Benfica 4-3 on aggregate.

Here is everything you need to know:

When is it?

The fixture will kick-off at 12pm at the King Power Stadium.

How can I watch it?

The match is live on BT Sport 1, with coverage starting from 11:30am.

What is the team news?

Leicester trio Harvey Barnes, Ricardo Pereira and Timothy Castagne are all set to return to the squad after missing the midweek loss in the Europa League. James Maddison is out due to a hip issue, joining James Justin, Dennis Praet, Ayoze Perez, Wes Morgan and Wesley Fofana on the sidelines.

Thomas Partey returned in the Europa League win over Benfica following his hamstring injury and Rob Holding has recovered from a concussion to give Mikel Arteta a full complement of players.

Confirmed line-ups:

Leicester: Schmeichel, Castagne, Evans, Soyuncu, Thomas, Pereira, Ndidi, Tielemans, Barnes, Iheanacho, Vardy

Arsenal: Leno, Cedric, Luiz, Mari, Tierney, Xhaka, Elneny, Pepe, Smith Rowe, Willian, Lacazette

Odds:

Leicester City: 6/4

Draw: 9/4

Arsenal: 19/10

Prediction:

Arsenal are on a high – but players like Bukayo Saka surely need a rest. Leicester have been the better side domestically, and the Gunners can never seem to contain Jamie Vardy. I expect the striker to score. 2-1 Leicester.
