Leicester City vs Arsenal Live Stream: Watch EPL Matches Online

Arsenal looks to rebound after yet another opening day disappointment by facing down Leicester City. Here are all the ways to watch the action.

It really is the same thing every year. Arsenal has a painful habit of looking woefully under-prepared to start the season. It happened last year against West Ham, it happened this year against Liverpool. It’s just one of Wenger’s many (negative) things.

This year, the rebound will not be so easy. Facing down EPL Champs Leicester City, the Gunners will have to contend with an attack with just as much speed as they faced against Liveprool. And they will have to contend with it with more questions marks.

Everyone has accepted that to send Rob Holding and Calum Chambers out there again is certain suicide. But Wenger has admitted that he is unsure if he wants to risk the fitness of Laurent Koscielny, Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud.

Obviously, it’s that first name that we should be primarily concerned with. Without Laurent Koscielny, expecting anything to change is a fool’s endeavor. Holding and Chambers are not prepared for first team action and you can bet Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez are well aware of this and ready to strike on any sort of mistake.

Remarkably, Wenger did not take the week following the Liverpool fiasco to add defense. Shkodran Mustafi is still not a Gunner, Jose Gimenez never will be at that price and everyone else is merely ‘an alternate’. Which raises the question… just who is the first choice? And naturally, the other question no one can answer… what’s taking so long?

While defense is Arsenal’s first priority, it is not their only priority. The Gunners lacked a presence up front against Liverpool and the solution for this is obvious Olivier Giroud. Yet it was without Giroud that Arsenal lambasted the Foxes 5-2 last year, so we have to consider the possibility that we merely match Leicester tit-for-tat.

Mesut Ozil is the other big question. With Aaron Ramsey and Alex Iwobi suffering new injuries, it falls to Ozil or Cazorla to take the No. 10. Neither Ozil nor Cazorla have full match fitness (literally, does anyone?). But when you get down to it, there is no more time to dither around. Get the stars back in there.

Enough of that. Here is all the info you need to watch what figures to be a very exciting game:
