Arsenal have been given a lift ahead of their Saturday match against Leicester City, as Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed that their star player James Maddison is a doubt for the game due to a knee injury, as reported by the Daily Mail. Maddison has been in good form this season, scoring nine goals and providing five assists in 17 appearances for Leicester. This news could be beneficial for the Gunners, as they look to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table. However, they must not underestimate their opponents, as they will still be a tough team to beat even without Maddison. If Arsenal can get the win then they will remain at the top of the table and take another step closer to winning the league title.
Arsenal have been handed a huge boost ahead of their Saturday fixture against Leicester City, with Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers revealing that their star player James Maddison is a doubt due to a knee injury. Maddison has been one of Leicester’s standout performers this season, contributing nine goals and five assists in 17 Premier League appearances.
This news could be beneficial for the Gunners, as they look to extend their lead at the top of the table. They currently enjoy a four-point advantage over second-placed Manchester United, and will be hoping to extend that lead at the King Power Stadium this weekend.
However, Arsenal mustn’t let their guard down, as Leicester will still be a stern test with or without Maddison. The Foxes have been in good form recently having won four out of their last five Premier League games, and a win for the Gunners could put them seven points clear at the summit.
A victory for the North Londoners would be a huge step towards winning the Premier League title, which would be their first since 2004. They’ll be looking to take advantage of Leicester’s weakened squad in order to extend their lead this weekend and remain top of the table.
