Leicester City – Arsenal | 23/09/2020

Leicester City and Arsenal face off in the pick of the EFL Cup third-round ties at the King Power Stadium on Wednesday evening. The winner of the all-Premier League affair will take on either Lincoln City or Liverpool next week for a place in the quarter-finals

Leicester and Arsenal have both made impressive starts to their Premier League campaigns by winning two games from two.

The Foxes, who somehow missed out on a top-four finish last season after badly drifting away, have defeated West Bromwich Albion and Burnley to top the table.

Arsenal have seen off Fulham and West Ham United in their opening two fixtures, meanwhile, having also edged out Liverpool on penalties in the Community Shield.

Mikel Arteta’s side required a late Eddie Nketiah goal to shake off West Ham, while Leicester recovered from a goal down to overcome Burnley at the weekend.

Focus now switches to the domestic cup and the chance to continue building some momentum in the opening month of a campaign unlike any other.

This will be just the third time Leicester and Arsenal have met in the EFL Cup, sharing a win apiece in those previous two encounters.
