Hello and welcome

Hello and welcome to today’s live coverage of Leicester City vs Arsenal in the Premier League.

Arsenal need to win today to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table. If they don’t win and Manchester City are likely to beat Bournemouth today, Mikel Arteta’s side will lose their position at the top of the pile.

Leicester will be hoping to continue moving away from the relegation places and an unlikely win could see them climb to 11th place.
