Team News:

Leicester:

Gradual returns of a number of stars have provided major boosts for Leicester in recent weeks and their treatment room is now only occupied by three players: Ryan Bertrand, James Justin, and Jonny Evans.

Youri Tielemans, a summer target for Arsenal, was only fit enough for a spot on the bench against Manchester United but should be ready to start here.

Arsenal:

Jorginho missed training on Monday but the belief is his absence was simply a bonus recovery day and so he should be ready to continue filling in for Thomas Partey, who is yet to return to first-team training. Gabriel Jesus and Mohamed Elneny remain long-term absentees.
