Match Preview: Arsenal vs. Leicester – Premier League 10.02.2015.

Any loss to Tottenham is hard to take but losing a one-nil advantage when a win would put you five clear of Spurs is still churning the stomachs of many a Gooner.

It seems like Sunday’s clash brings us two clubs moving in very different directions—Arsenal, winners of four in a row (and boasting of three clean sheets to boot), and Aston Villa, whose only wins of late have come against Championship sides Bournemouth and Blackpool in the FA Cup. They’ve not scored a Prem goal since mid-December and haven’t won a Prem match since beating Leicester in early December. Here’s hoping that we can add to that list of woes on Sunday.
